I've put a NULL check in there, and also for the other iterator classes
which use NULL internals to signify being at the end - this only worked
for TermIterator in 1.2.x, but it seems reasonable to make it work in
general and a NULL pointer check isn't a big overhead.

This should work again in 1.3.2 (once it is out), but if you want to
support 1.3.1 then you need the check.
