Function with variable numbers of arguments, and non-member functions, aren't
(yet) supported. In fact, supporting functions with variable number of arguments
never occurred to me. Also, when non-member functions are supported, they will
have to have at least one parameter type related to the interface being defined.

What's your intended use?
