No, but the value at least isn't bizarre. It would be correct for rloge as
an array, and i assume it gets through because of the way the
array->pointer change is done. Even so, if it had been GCC, by now it would
be an essential extension, and have been used to implement an elisp
interpreter, shave micro cycles from the time of a Java vm , and by GCC
itself. I might look at nipping all that in the bud tomorrow, although I
think I have looked at this once before.
