Also, in the ANSI C (9x) documentation (``n843''), taking the address of a
va_list is NOT listed as one of the things that will produce an undefined
result. Actually, on page 7.15 (pg246 as seen by acroread), footnote item 198
specifically states ``It is permitted to create a pointer to a va_list and
pass that pointer to another function,.. in which case the original list may
make further use of the original list after the other function returns.''

Well, I see this is also in ISO C9x, but unless the standard restricts the 
possible types for va_list (I can't find anything about that), you have 
still to be aware that any callee gets a reference to the va_list if 
va_list is an array and so the usual array handling rules apply, or?
