Is it really a kludge? It's a pointer.

int array[128];

Want to reference the array in a memcpy? Do: memcpy(destination, array, 
sizeof(array));

Want to reference an element in the array? array[element #]

Want to pass (a reference to) said array to a function? function(array)

Not sure what the kludge is.

I think C is more consistent when it comes to arrays than a lot of other 
languages. At least with C you KNOW it's a pointer to the original.
