Let's assume for the sake of simplicity that all the arguments have the
same type. (...)

If that's not the case, you can wrap the arguments in a union, and pass
an array of those, e.g. (assuming you can count on argument types)
union Argument {
        int i;
        float j;
        char *s;
        } ;
union Argument arg_list[MAX_ARGS];  /* array to pass */
