passing pointers to pointers in Cint

here is a little test macro "test.C" :

void test(Int_t **bidim) {
  cout << bidim << endl;
  cout << bidim[0] << endl;
  cout << bidim[1] << endl;
  cout << bidim[0][0] << endl;
}

root [13] .L test.C
root [14] Int_t bidi[10][10]
root [15] bidi
(Int_t**)0x52bd68
root [16] bidi[0]
(Int_t*)0x52bd68
root [17] bidi[1]
(Int_t*)0x52bd90
root [18] bidi[0][0]
(Int_t)0
root [19] cout << bidi[0] << endl;
0x52bd68
root [20]  test(bidi)
0x52bd68
0
0

 *** Break *** segmentation violation
Root > bidi[0]
(Int_t*)0x52bd68
root [22] 

Is this a known limitation of Cint or a bug ?
I am using  root 2.22.10 on SunOS
