I agree that it's not always obvious, but well, it's the only way to really
be sure of CM9000's behaviour.

I would really find it strange to have such checks in DirectX, an API that
is supposed to be fast (for example, I have a test program which gives you a
nice BSOD just because I forgot to set a pointer to a value different from
NULL).
These kind of checks should only present in the 'debug' release of the D3D
DLL which should do a lot of additionnal checks.
