As someone pointed out, this discussion originated with someone's
`wish list' item of run-time subscript bounding a la FORTRAN's
SUBROUTINE FOO(M, N, A)
INTEGER M, N
INTEGER A(M,N)
declarations. In such cases virtual origins still work, but must
be computed at run time, e.g., at entry to FOO above.
