Ug, I think I prefer the linker trick better.

Is this the same as returning a pointer? It makes me very nervous about
returning a union. Can a compiler return something allocated on the stack?

Also, don't use "ufunc" as that makes me think its a user space variable.

This looks really intrusive for what it's trying to accomplish.

The linker trick is far less intrusive, and I believe less error prone.
