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".
Yes, I did use static in my actual code. In fact, I found a bug because
of this (one of my voldemort functions was allocating a closure because
I had thought I was using a member but was actually using a function
parameter).
But this doesn't fix the symbol size problem. The other mechanism does.
