I was curious what this minimalist class was called. Now I am more
puzzled than ever:

Here is the code for Arrays.asList

public static <T> List<T> asList(T... a) {
return new ArrayList<T>(a);

Which indicates you actually get a full blown ArrayList. But the odd
thing is I could find no ArrayList constructor to match. There is a
collection constructor but not an array constructor. Is there some
sort of boxing happening? Am I just not seeing the constructor for
some reason? I don't see it in the JavaDoc either.
