 * Tcl_ListObjIndex --
 *
 *      This function returns a pointer to the index'th object from the list
 *      referenced by listPtr. The first element has index 0. If index is
 *      negative or greater than or equal to the number of elements in the
 *      list, a NULL is returned. If listPtr is not a list object, an attempt
 *      will be made to convert it to a list.
 *
 * Results:
 *      The return value is normally TCL_OK; in this case objPtrPtr is set to
 *      the Tcl_Obj pointer for the index'th list element or NULL if index is
 *      out of range. This object should be treated as readonly and its ref
 *      count is _not_ incremented; the caller must do that if it holds on to
 *      the reference. If listPtr does not refer to a list and can't be
 *      converted to one, TCL_ERROR is returned and an error message is left
 *      in the interpreter's result if interp is not NULL.
 *
 * Side effects:
 *      listPtr will be converted, if necessary, to a list object.

 *      in the list, then no elements are deleted; the new elements are
 *      appended to the list. Count gives the number of elements to replace.
 *      If count is zero or negative then no elements are deleted; the new
 *      elements are simply inserted before first.
 *
 *      The argument objv refers to an array of objc pointers to the new
 *      elements to be added to listPtr in place of those that were deleted.
 *      If objv is NULL, no new elements are added. If listPtr is not a list

 * Results:

 *      an error message will be left in the interpreter's result if interp is
 *      not NULL.
 *
 * Side effects:
 *      The ref counts of the objc elements in objv are incremented since the
 *      resulting list now refers to them. Similarly, the ref counts for
 *      replaced objects are decremented. listPtr is converted, if necessary,

 * TclLsetFlat --
 *
 *      Core engine of the 'lset' command.
 *
 * Results:
 *      Returns the new value of the list variable, or NULL if an error
 *      occurred. The returned object includes one reference count for
 *      the pointer returned.
 *
 * Side effects:
 *      On entry, the reference count of the variable value does not reflect
 *      any references held on the stack. The first action of this function is
 *      to determine whether the object is shared, and to duplicate it if it
 *      is. The reference count of the duplicate is incremented. At this
 *      point, the reference count will be 1 for either case, so that the
 *      object will appear to be unshared.
 *
 *      If an error occurs, and the object has been duplicated, the reference
 *      count on the duplicate is decremented so that it is now 0: this
 *      dismisses any memory that was allocated by this function.
 *
 *      If no error occurs, the reference count of the original object is
 *      incremented if the object has not been duplicated, and nothing is done
 *      to a reference count of the duplicate. Now the reference count of an
 *      unduplicated object is 2 (the returned pointer, plus the one stored in
 *      the variable). The reference count of a duplicate object is 1,
 *      reflecting that the returned pointer is the only active reference. The
 *      caller is expected to store the returned value back in the variable
 *      and decrement its reference count. (INST_STORE_* does exactly this.)
 *
 *      Surgery is performed on the unshared list value to produce the result.
 *      TclLsetFlat maintains a linked list of Tcl_Obj's whose string
 *      representations must be spoilt by threading via 'ptr2' of the
 *      two-pointer internal representation. On entry to TclLsetFlat, the
 *      values of 'ptr2' are immaterial; on exit, the 'ptr2' field of any
 *      Tcl_Obj that has been modified is set to NULL.
