it didn' "creap" in. We wanted to be sure that debug output lines that
do octstr_get_cstr(octstr) return a string that can be displayed so
that the analyzer of the logs knows that this has been a NULLed value
instead of breaking everything up with if then clauses.

I'd propose that any caller of octstr_get_cstr() may be aware that he
should not call the function in case the octstr itself is anyway
NULLed.

Can any others that did the commit for "(null)" please heads up and
comment on this.
