I didn't imagine any such scenarios. All I meant was to point out that tuplized arguments are only good enough if they're unboxed. Well, also to remind Keean of the syntactic ambiguity between multiple args and a tuple of args. But one could also take the position that an unboxed tuple of args _is_ multiple args. _______________________________________________ bitc-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev
