Lubos,
  Here's a simple example I just wrote up:

proc myproc {} {
  set a {}
  lappend a list
  lappend a of
  lappend a stuff
  puts "List: $a"
  set myary(A) $a
  set myary(B) {another list of stuff}

  puts "Array values inside proc:"
  puts "[array get myary]"

  return [array get myary]
}

array set foo [myproc]
puts "Array values:"
puts "[array get foo]"
