Not quite. The problem exists, but is more subtle than that. For example, 
if you substitute

 	loop for i=0..3
         	aa = getData( a, i)
         	aa
 	end loop

with

 	loop for i=0..3
         	aa = getData( a, i)
 	        print aa
 	end loop

or with

 	loop for i=0..3
         	aa = getData( a, $i)
 	        aa
 	end loop

your script works alright. I have no time to work on this today, but 
clearly something funny's going on here. Thanks for spotting this.
