:Isn't just checking whether the ctor pointer is NULL enough instead of 
:oc->simple_objsize?

    It's never NULL.  The functions default out to dummy routines.  I
    suppose I could check if (oc->ctor == null_ctor) but I think its
    more generic to just have a separate supporting field with the 
    object size, since you need the object size anyway to do the bzero().
