Lou, on my machine (Sun 3/60, SunOS 4.0) this is not true;
    sizeof (foo) == sizeof foo == 16
This corresponds with the way I have used sizeof with arrays for
many years now, and in fact the standard unix kernel configuration
files depend on it. Of course, your mileage may vary, but I would like
to hear about any machines where sizeof works the way you state.
