The argument for consistency with other functions that are variadic makes sense to me: although they are different from
ordinaryvariadic functions in the type unification they do, their description in the manual simply calls them functions
withoutcalling attention to any way that they are different beasts. So, a reader might reasonably be surprised that
VARIADICdoesn't work in the usual way.
This patch applies (with some offsets) but the build produces several incompatible pointer type assignment warnings,
andfails on errors where fcinfo->arg is no longer a thing (so should be rebased over the variable-length function call
argspatch).
It does not yet add regression tests, or update the documentation in func.sgml.
