Following your logic above, better to use sizeof (*pointer).

That makes sense. (Honestly, I didn't know you could do indirection in
the sizeof operator, but upon reflection, I guess I had no valid basis
for that assumption, and have just re-read what the C++ spec has to say
about sizeof - (I don't have the latest C spec handy)).
