What does not copy structs mean?  I just gave bcc a spin and it accepts
a function with a struct parameter.  The generated code looks sane too
(though I don't really know the instruction set).  I can't actually run
the code because the emulator is unavailable on my system, so maybe it's
not really doing what I think.
