No, almost none at all.
The only significant things are some type checks during signal
handling and object slot setting. These typechecks have been made
possible by the finer grained type system and are contained in an
g_assert. That is, they are only there as a debugging aid.
Ah, yes and hashing performance of the type infos migth have suffered,
but I think I can recover that.
