Am I missing a more agreeable way to check the return value of a
C function against NULL. It's fine if it's a char*, but if it
returns a pointer to some kind of struct, one has to go through
and convert each instance of NULL to a cast of the appropriate
return type. Eg cast(funnystruct*)0
if ((tomime_fields.fld_description==cast(char*)0))
throw new Exception("show_part_info: description is NULL");
