   The _next iterators all work in similar ways: they take things to query (a
   dict, a name, a type ID, something like that), then a ctf_next_t iterator
   arg which must be the address of a variable whose value is NULL on first
   call, and will be set to NULL again once iteration has completed.

   provide more information too: this is done via pointer parameters (e.g. the
   membname and membtype in ctf_member_next()).  These parameters are always
   optional and can be set to NULL if not needed.
