Alternatively, you could save them in compound variables using an old
REXX convention to keep track of them:

  tails.0 = 0
  call addtail mytail
  call addtail yourtail
  /* tails.0: 2
     tails.1: MYTAIL
     tails.2: YOURTAIL */
  exit
  addtail: proc expose tails.
     tails.0 = tails.0 + 1
     i = tails.0
     parse pull tails.i .
     return
