  Better yet, can someone post a method to get the size of a field
without having to create the struct or union which *is*
	a. portable
	b. readable

  Why discuss the virtues of NULL and why it should be special in this
case, assume that even if it works people will flame you for using it,
and let someone prove how smart they are by posting a sloution to the
problem.
