Hey,

I noticed you used var foo = in the dynamic test. Doesn't Vala need to
know what the return type will be at compile time? I think it is
assuming it will be an object path when its actually an array of 4
intergers.

In the static test, i wonder in vala can't yet map a return type of "4
integers" to a struct - have you tried using int[4] as the return
type?
