Hey, man, I was never the Array guy anyway! I did minimal patches to make that stuff kinda work when I was meddling nearby, but I never pretended to know how anything was *supposed* to be done. Hmmm... I guess how that's most code is developed, isn't it? In particular, I was always very confused about when things were supposed to autovivify and when not (remember that both Array and PerlArray are kicking around). So I made stuff up. Incorrectly, I'm sure. So whoever fixes the NULL problem: this is something else to think about. (And no, I won't be able to pitch in on Arrays now -- I'll be even more nonexistent than usual for the next week.)
