We need to invoke various functions at runtime with variable numbers
of arguements. How can we do this? I suppose we could push the
parameters using assembler and then call the function passing the
argcount as the ordinary parameter.

The next best thing I can thing of is to call the function with a
fixed number of parameters, some of which might be NULL. Not a very
elegant solution, and very limited. What better solutions are there?

Anyone?
