Review Comment:
As noted previously: this guard was deliberately removed at a maintainer's
request to match the rest of Stream.hh. next_ and end_ are always assigned
together (both null immediately after init()/reset(), both valid once data is
buffered), so the null case yields 0 in practice on every supported platform.
Deferring to that maintainer decision; the comment documents the null case.
