Yes, I had figured that was probably the sort of thing that was
happening, but am looking for the details of how the macros are
defined (so I can figure out what they expand to) and how the
underlying data structures get initialized.  For example, I would
expect to find -- somewhere -- some definitions along the lines of

#define G_PART_PROBE(table, cp) (*(table->XXX))(table, cp)

(for some, probably fairly complicated, value of XXX).
