Dear Chris and Keith,

Thank you so much for your help, and clarifying that I should just use
an input parameter.  I'm not sure why I thought I should use an output
parameter, but that is what I thought.  I think why I went about it that
way was that I wanted the dylan function wrapper to allocate the struct
and then return the struct after it called the C function.  But now I
know the right way, and it is easy enough.

thanks again!
