Two things not quite working out here:
  
 - HDirect treated 'unique' as 'ref' for function pointers;
    that's easier to work with if 'unique' was the inferred/default
    kind, but clearly not what you want if you explicitly supplied
    a 'unique' attribute.
 - The by-ref marshallers for function types have types with shapes
    slightly different from other by-ref marshallers. Hence, extra
    care is required when emitting marshallers for types that contain
    them.

Both of these issues have now been fixed in the CVS repository.

Subject: HDirect, [unique], troubles again!
