Yup. :-)  I think that the store_parm_decls_from() routine I put in
yesterday will do nicely for now.  When we're in gcc 3.6 stage 1, we can
revisit this.

As a side note, I think that your data structure work (and others' work 
of
this nature) should wait until stage 1 is open again.  Many features 
need
to be integrated before gcc 3.5 goes out the door (ObjC++ is but one of
them), and mucking with data structures this late in the game will make
integration more tedious (and slower).
