It reduces the number of combinations to consider in the rules following it, but it's not in itself a change we'd want to apply. The next helper rule turns sizeof operating on array elements to sizeof on specific types. That one is much uglier, as it removes the information from whence the inferred type came. In practice none of these helpers transformed any code that wasn't matched by the final rule for using COPY_ARRAY. It would be nice to get rid of them nevertheless, to rule out such side-effects. I just don't see a practical way to make do without them, though. René
