Microsoft 'C' - Strange behaviour with doubles

[Robert L. Fair]

Consider an array of 15 pointers to arrays of doubles:

	double (*parray[15])[];

The following code to 'malloc' the actual double array barfs on Microsoft 'C',
with a 'different levels of indirection' warning on the '='.
The code passes through LINT, and compiles OK on UN*X 5.2

	char	*malloc();

	parray[0] = (double*)malloc((unsigned)sizeof(double)*75);

Microsoft produces the same error if the coercion is (double**), (double),
or nothing at all !

Any ideas ?
