ssc type urcovar.ado (see Mata functiion m_urcovar) has an example of this sort of thing. It is not really feasible to handle it any other way (other than shuffling matrices back to the Stata context) as the user determines the number of lags to be considered, and you need one matrix per lag order. Creating a vector of pointers to real matrices turns out to be the most straightforward and efficient way to do this.
