Why did you add "_Radix = 0" here?

Is that to suppress a singleton variable warning?
If so, the fact that the warning occurs is really a problem
in the Mercury C# interface, and we ought to fix that.

Oh, I guess it is probably due to the C# compiler reporting
errors about attempts to access variables which may not have
been initialized.  That's a bit harder to avoid.

Does C# have anything like GCC's "noreturn" attribute?
