[antlr-interest] cleaned up sets (I hope)

[mblp at mega.ist.utl.pt]

Hey,

I can't resist to ask if is there any generics support on the roadmap,
or antlr3 won't use generics at all to maintain java 1.4-
compatibility? :P

I haven't dug deep into antlr, but I can remember some spots where
generics would be more elegant:

public class CommonTreeAdaptor<T extrens CommonTree> (...)

public class SQLTreeAdaptor extends CommonTreeAdaptor<SQLTree> {
	public <SQLTree> create(Token payload) {
		return new SQLTree(payload);
	}
}

My guess is it should be only a matter of creating the appropriate
template for the antlr code generation engine :)
