DEC C in one of its non-ANSI modes didn't like
fieldorder = test ? &array1 : &array2;
It first complained that '&' applied to an array has no effect (which
was typically true in pre-ANSI environments) and once those '&'s are
ignored, the attempted assignment didn't match the variable's type.
That code was actually more complicated that it needed to be; slightly
simpler code works as intended.
