Argh, I was afraid something like this would happen.

Does it complain about all variable types?

Does it work with this?
*((long long int *) ((long long int *)ind + ind_offset*act_tuple)) = variable->len;
If it does we have to check whether that does what I expect it to.
The idea was to skip the rest of a struct. Let's assume you have a
struct
{int foo;float bar;
}
If you now read a set of tuples into an array of structs of this type you
have to calculate the address of the struct[1].foo, struct[2].foo etc. and
struct[1].bar, struct[2].bar, etc.
