The subject header says it all: I noted that the Borland compiler treats
array arguments as unmodifyable pointers, i.e.
 f( X a[] ) <=> f( X* const a )
 f( const X a[] ) <=> f( const X* const a )
I'm all for it--no more *a++ --but is this really the law of the land in
C++? It clearly deviates from ANSI C.

Clarifications on the legality, preferably by email, would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!
