Review of attachment 159229 [details] [review]:

It seems a bit dangerous to me to have invalid C code in the test suite; e.g. if someone were to write an automated script that generated different kinds of calls, this could be a potential trap.  But on the other hand hopefully they'd quickly realize what was wrong.

You might note in the test case that to be robust against broken C functions, bindings can initialize even OUT values to NULL.
