Static arrays problem

done with a loop, avoiding the creation of such huge executables.

TypeInfo should probably contain an init(void[]) routine instead of a void[]
member which is byte copied onto the new block.  Then, initializers that
are easy to decompose could at least be turned into a series of memset
operations.  For built-in types, this should be very easy to do, since the
functions could be hand-coded as opposed to requiring code generation
from the compiler.
