[sldev] Why won't isAvatar() work?

[Nicholaz Beresford]

It depends on where you made your addition exactly.  There
are various paths which could lead to bad objectp pointers
(especially outside the loop, since you say "at the end").

You will probably want to hook yourself into places where
they do the processUpdateCore() where it should be clear
that the pointer is valid because the source uses it.
