To clarify a bit more, if it's an array the actual array elements are
stored in the structure, so &s->pointer[0] is just the offset of the
field in the array, but if it's a pointer just the address of whatever
the pointer points to is stored in the structure, so you have to
dereference the pointer to the structure to get to it.
