In the words of the great Homer Simpson. "DOH!"
It should have been repeat(repeat(0,8),10)--No reversal
Similarly it should be.

function array(integer filler, sequence dimensions)
  object x

  x = filler
  for A = 1 to length(dimensions) do
    x = repeat(x, dimensions[A])--corrected before sent to listserv
  end for

  return x
end function

The mixed up version of the routine, that I cooked up the first time,
properly served my purposes.  I guess that is why I didn't notice I had done
it all wrong.  Bells should have gone off when I tried to reverse it because
I knew I was handling the data backwards and then it would not work. :)

------Thanks again Dan.
