mixing pointers and arrays

[Andrew Klossner]

Here's a reactionary note:  I don't think that passing and returning
structures is a good idea, and should be backed out of the language.
It conflicts with the rest of C in that it can be a very "expensive"
operation, while the other C operations are "frugal".

However, I recognize that structure return values are vital in
producing YACC parsers when multiple attributes are in use.  Perhaps
this was the movitating force for this language enhancement?
