In OpenAxiom? functions can return domain-values. This works for example in 

axiom
MyPair(X:Domain,Y:Domain):Domain == Record(p1:X,p2:Y)
   Function declaration MyPair : (Domain,Domain) -> Domain has been 
      added to workspace.
Type: Void
axiom
MyPair(Integer,Float)
   Cannot compile the declaration for p1 because its (possible partial)
      type contains a local variable.
   OpenAxiom will attempt to step through and interpret the code.
axiom
Compiling function MyPair with type (Domain,Domain) -> Domain 
   Compiled code for MyPair has been cleared.

Type: Domain

where Record is a built-in type.

But I cannot use a compiled type such as Product in place of Record 

axiom
MyPair2(X:Domain,Y:Domain):Domain == Product(X,Y)
   Function declaration MyPair2 : (Domain,Domain) -> Domain has been 
      added to workspace.
Type: Void
axiom
MyPair2(Integer,Float)
   Product(#1,#2) is not a valid type.
Product(Integer,Float)
