The code needs to be teached to handle indexed array fields correctly, at 
the moment this causes the backend to crash.

And there's also a shift/reduce conflict, which needs to be fixed in 
gram.y. The code has some fragments around which aren't used anymore, so a 
cleanup is on my todo as well (however, some are already ifdef'ed out).
