If I recall, you can return an arrayref, which will always be interpreteed
correctly as an "array" in TT-side.  So, returning [] will correctly
be seen as "size of 0" and [42] will be seen as "size of 1", etc.

TT was never intended to call arbitrary methods or functions... the callback
scheme has a particular protocol that must be followed.
