 developer rev 18236:MODIFIED linux-gnu_x86_64
 (Mon Oct  1 11:57:46 EDT 2012 by sac)
This simple example of nested array code fails, due to TC not
liking non-simple array arguments:
cat crud2.sac 
/*
 * Simple example of nested array use in sac2c:
 * Construct (iota(3), iota(4), iota(5)...).
 *
 */
use Array:all;
nested int[.] vec;
int main()
{
  hole = enclose_vec ( [42] );
  x = 3 + iota(10);
  z = [ hole, hole, hole, hole, hole, hole, hole, hole, hole, hole];
  for( i=0; i<20; i++ ) {
    z = _modarray_AxVxS_( z, [i], enclose_vec( iota( x[i])));
  }
  StdIO::print(z);
  return(0);
}
The problem is that NTCCTprf_modarray_AxVxS calls TEassureSameSimpleType,
which wants, oddly enough, a SimpleType. Which z is not.
Question for Dr. TC: Can we simply relax that test (handwave, handwave)
to a make it a call to the (non-existent) TCassureSameType?
Or is the pit deeper than that?
