Here are some simple asserts and comments which should make it easier
to maintain the correct sizing of certain stubs:

This is a follow-up to my push regarding itable stubs, which changed
the sizing:

On retrospect, I wasn't satisfied with the robustness of the sizing
logic. Clearly something more automatic could be done, but I'll leave
that for someone else to do. Meanwhile, these comments and asserts
are safe and simple.
