the uppercase lambda is not valid for kinds other than *, actually, the
uppercase lambda is just there to help people used to system F, there is
no such thing in jhc core since PTS's 'pi' terms subsume explicit type
application terms as well as functional types. papers on PTS's (pure
type systems) such as the henk paper have more details on the difference
between PTS's and system F.
