I have solved this problem as follows, the commit got stuffed up
because I
still haven't figured out how to get git to re-download files when i
mess up.
So I've lost the changes and will have to do them again. The solution
is basically to add a new combinator
`BEXPR_address e
which takes the address of an arbitrary expression, and to allow
lvalue fun subscript[t] : carray[t] * int -> t = "$1[$2]";
and then
&a.[i]
will work: taking the address of an expression which is an
application of an lvalue primitive will be allowed.
Felix functions cannot be lvalue (because Felix has no way
to return an lvalue).
This solution is "C" like rather than "C++" like, in that
it is purely syntactic and does not involve the type system.
This means
a.[i] += 1;
should now work. (Wait for the commit after I do all
the changes again .. it's not really that much).
