Thanks for the checking. I've refreshed the webrev [1] so that it 
includes this update.

I've changed the Linux/BSD/Solaris versions so that they should all be 
consistent now. The only places where the CHECK_NULL(id = GetXXX) style 
remains is in very trivial init methods.

I'll need to double check that the updated version build + passes tests 
on all platforms and once that is done then I think we are good to go.
