-It is a compile-time error if `await e` occurs, and the static type of
-`e` is an extension type which is not a subtype of `Future<T>` for any
-`T`.
+We say that a type `T` is _incompatible with await_ if at least 
+one of the following criteria holds:
+
+- `T` is an extension type that does not implement `Future`.
+- `T` is `S?`, and `S` is incompatible with await.
+- `T` is `X & B`, and either:
+  - `B` is incompatible with await, or
+  - `B` does not derive a future type, and `X` is
+    incompatible with await.
+- `T` is a type variable with bound `S`, and `S` is incompatible 
+  with await.
+
+Consider an expression of the form `await e`. A compile-time error 
+occurs if the static type of `e` is incompatible with await.
 
 A compile-time error occurs if an extension type declares a member whose
 basename is the basename of an instance member declared by `Object` as
