Thank you. Yes, the first one is the one I've understood to be the
correct way to loop over an array stored in a scalar variable. The
fact that this, IIUC, worked in 0.8.0 but doesn't any more in r32239,
is a bit concerning. I would think that there would be regression
tests against that, but maybe there aren't.
I'll have a look at the test suite, and report my findings.
