Thanks Philippe, integrated most of these except for the changes to metadataFromAccessorName() – the symbol prefix was wrong and I think it’s better to stick with the approach of indirecting the metadata lookup through the accessor. Obviously if there’s a compiler issue on Linux we should fix it :)

(Hopefully I didn’t miss anything on the merge, unfortunately rebasing to master before merging your changes made it a bit fiddly.)

I’ve implemented but not extensively tested decodeValueOfObjCType(). Do we need to support NSConcreteValue?
