For reference, the URL of the lpc_ext.h file is:

    http://lpc-ext.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=lpc-ext/lpc-ext;a=blob;f=src/lpc_ext.h;hb=HEAD

As you can see, lpc_array_getval() is in there.  In the extension
system offered by DGD in 2008, there was no way to get an object from
a value, either.
