The convention is to put a "verify (NIL_IS_ZERO);" near the rare bits of 
code that assume Qnil is all-bits-zero. This is to help out any 
hypothetical future developer who wants to change Qnil to be some other 
value. Currently there are only two such locations. (There is one other 
location that uses NIL_IS_ZERO for an optimization.)
