Because of that, all primitives inserted into slots are to be boxed when written and unboxed when read.

For example, that should probably happen with primitive parameters to a method, or with global scope local variables (the ones you define at the top of your method). It will be an interesting exercise, but for now, I just want to see the yielder working again for everyone, Eclipse and non-debug-info as well, so I'll make the easier fix first.
