Looking around, there is only one in-core caller of
WinGetFuncArgInPartition, and it does pass a valid "isout" pointer,
explaining why this inconsistency wasn't obvious in testing.
There are outside callers though according to Debian Code Search,
and at least PostGIS is one that passes a null pointer.
As Alvaro notes nearby, this function is ridiculously complicated
already. I'm tempted to remove the API allowance for isout == NULL,
and thereby simplify the code slightly, rather than complicate it more
by continuing to allow that. We'd have to warn the PostGIS people
about the API change though.
