I realized after I posted this that the patterns:

are the same as far as marking goes, and so should all generate the same

Another possibility is to just emit a bit mask:
0 no pointers
101 ptr .. int .. ptr
1011 ptr .. ptr .. int .. ptr
>0xFFFF a pointer to a function that does the marking
This has the advantage of almost never needing to resort to the indirect
function call.
