Adam Olsen added the comment:
typeobject.c:1842:type_new
type = (PyTypeObject *)metatype->tp_alloc(metatype, nslots);
nslots may be 0.
typeobject.c:1966:type_new assigns this just-past-the-end address to
tp_members
type->tp_members = PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS(et);
type_new later calls PyType_Ready, which calls add_members.
typeobject.c:3062:add_members
for (; memb->name != NULL; memb++) {
Interestingly, traverse_slots and clear_slots both use Py_Size rather
than name != NULL (so I was wrong about the extent of the problem.)
Both seem only to be used for heap types. add_members is used by both
heap types and static C types, so it needs to handle both behaviours.
One possible (if ugly) solution would be to switch iteration methods
depending on if Py_Size() is 0 or not, making sure type_new sets
tp_members to NULL if Py_Size() is 0.
