[MATRIX-SIG] array objects and if?

I guess my question was whether the array object is intended to
be a sequence or a scalar.  It looks like in the case of the "if"
test it is considered a scalar (nonzero array vs. array of zero
length).  Clearly you can't have it both ways and it is easy
enough to explicitly test for zero length.

Thanks.
