I don't think it's right. If we have pointers to pointers to data we want to use, we have to dereference them fully; we can't stop at the first dereference and say "We're *closer* to the data; let's stop here." > I'll apply the patch once a consensus has been reached. Revert r19938 locally and try make testC again; I bet it fails horribly. -- c
