Thanks, but the patch is definitely getting executed - it has other
ports which are hooked up, and if I set an NSDictionary on the output
port it works fine.

I've been doing some more investigating... You can create an output
port that will hold an NSArray with
@property (assign) NSArray* outputArray;
but there appears to be no way of doing so dynamically.  I've
submitted an enhancement request, but would love to hear of any
workarounds...
