Hi Peter,

The V type signature is used on an experimental branch in Zavolaj. See here:

https://github.com/jnthn/zavolaj/blob/out_params/lib/NativeCall.pm6

<https://github.com/jnthn/zavolaj/blob/out_params/lib/NativeCall.pm6>In TT
#1931 there is mention of a more general call-by-reference system.  Is there
an alternative that zavolaj can use, or will this commit break the zavolaj
branch?

The branch is a work in progress to get zavolaj working with SQLite which
extensively uses opaque pointer out parameters.

Cheers,
Donald.
