 suite_aggrs for dyncall written in C and Lua.
 
-Tests aggregates (structs, unions) passed by value, along with other,
-non-aggregate args.
+Tests aggregates (structs, unions and arrays) passed by value, along with
+other, non-aggregate args. Note, arrays are only passed/returned by value as
+members of structs and unions, as they woult decay to a pointer if passed to a
+function and cannot be returned.
+So this test suite does not generate any arrays outside of structs and unions.
 
 A macro AGGR_MISALIGN can be used in globals.c to intentionally misalign
 aggregate instances.
