what i'm talking about is this:

int x[5];
int *y;
int foo[__builtin_types_compatible_p (__typeof(x), __typeof(y)) == 1 ? 
1 : -1];

brad wants the above to compile.

otherwise you can never pass an "int []" when we expect an
"int *" to an altivec macro/"overloaded function".

perhaps __builtin_types_compatible_p should return true for pointers
and array of the same underlying type (?)
