Yeah, I guess.  It doesn't make too much sense to add a lot of 
protection in case pt_regs[] changes size, but an assert() can give us 
reassurance that, if something unexpected were to change, we'd find out 
about it in some easy-to-recognize way.

I just posted v2.  Same patch, but with an assertion.
