Yes, of course. I didn't know that a widl test existed. Would be
*really* great if the crosstest of this test could use MIDL generated
client/server code instead of WIDL one, but when I tried some time ago
it looked like getting MIDL to run in Wine needs some work.

If I write a test for

       void frobnicate([size_is(x),in,out] int * bar1,
                       [size_is(*bar1),out] int bar2[],
                       [in] int x);

instead, I can also test that bar1 is null-pointer-checked while bar2
gets away with being NULL as long as *bar1 is 0 on exit of the function.
This is what [6/8] fixes in widl.
