This solution works awesomely, actually. It even produces smaller code than
moving the struct completely outside.

I'm going to use this mechanism in iopipe to get my voldemorts back :)


Consider using a 'static struct'. A non-static struct will include a hidden 
member that points to the stack frame of foo(), i.e. "produces smaller code".
