It's not in my papers, because it is a rather subtle feature of the
type system, and is not directly related to type inference. It should
be in Vouillon&Remy's paper about objects.
It is documented in the manual, at the very end of section 6.8.1.
There are some examples involving objects (using the class syntax) in
section 3.10 of the tutorial.
