[rust-dev] Parameter passing and native calls

Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:14:35 -0700

Now that every parameter is passed by reference, our ABI is no longer compatible with C. Passing a struct by value is not the same as passing it by immutable alias in C.
This is a severe problem, and my first instinct is to propose bringing back & for it. We could bring the old meaning of & back just for native calls, but that seems inconsistent.
