This worked very well.  I have this for my sub-model:

0 New Model
0 Name: single-arrows.ldr
0 Author: MLCad
0 Unofficial Model
1 8 0 8 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 0 0 3023.DAT
1 8 0 -72 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 0 0 3023.DAT
0 MLCAD ARROW 8 0 -16 0 0 0.707107 -0.707107 -1 0 0 0 0.707107 0.707107  10 4 12 40  3 30 1 2  0 0
0 MLCAD SKIP_BEGIN
3 0 0 -4 0 -3.53553 -19 -3.53553 0 -14 0
3 0 0 -4 0 3.53553 -19 3.53553 0 -14 0
3 0 0 -14 0 -1.41421 -16 -1.41421 1.41421 -16 1.41421
4 0 -1.41421 -16 -1.41421 -1.41421 -56 -1.41421 1.41421 -56 1.41421 1.41421 -16 1.41421
0 MLCAD SKIP_END

And this for my higher level model:

0 New Model
0 Name: single-callout.ldr
0 Author: MLCad
0 Unofficial Model
0 BUFEXCHG A STORE
0 LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN
1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 single-arrows.ldr
0 LPUB CALLOUT END
0 BUFEXCHG A RETRIEVE
0 LPUB PLI BEGIN IGN
1 8 0 8 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 0 0 3023.DAT
1 8 0 0 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 1 0 0 3023.DAT
0 LPUB PLI END

(...) Right. This indeed works. However it does not seem to work in an MPD file. Render this: 0 New Model 0 Name: single-callout.ldr 0 Author: MLCad 0 Unofficial Model 0 BUFEXCHG A STORE 0 LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
