$ ack SET_NULL src | wc -l

It looks like it's mostly for SET_NULL_P where they intent is to cast
NULL to a given type, as in:
src/inter_create.c:198: SET_NULL_P(CONTEXT(interp->ctx)-
>current_object, PMC*);
But Lord knows there are enough cases where we're NOT using those
macros and not getting problems.
I'm gonna yank 'em.
