The following code segfaults immediately.
If you uncomment the second line (print "")
it works.
However, if you then uncomment the #non_prototyped
keyword in _depth1, it segfaults immediately again.
When I say it segfaults immediately, I mean that
the initial 0 is not printed.

In pmc_new_noinit, I see a switch() which decides whether or not to do

1. I'm thinking MMD should be called something else when being applied
to multisubs rather
