Revert "#653 -- no lub for statement exprs' types"

I should not have merged this pull request yet.
I didn't notice we didn't have a full successful run of the test suite.
It looks like it breaks test/files/continuations-neg/lazy.scala and
given the pending amount of changes, I prefer to have a stable master.

This reverts commit 037d3dcbc5896864aec0f9121eeda23fcc4cd610.
