Oops, sorry, crossed emails.  If we don't coerce from fromval when
assigning to an internal variable, it simply means that the internal
variable acquires array type and the full array contents, instead of
acquiring pointer type.  But I don't see why this would be a problem;
in fact it may well preferable.  See my other mail for more details ...
