Félix,

thanks for your patch!  It does look good, let me give it a quick test tomorrow and I'll be happy to commit it.

I also tried `int $x[2] = {0x0102, 0x0203};` and it does not work (it creates a zeroed array of 2 elements), but it came to my attention that it also doesn't work with the release of lldb that ships with Xcode, so I don't think it's due to this change.
