Agreed about defending against prevbit < -1. I added an Assert for
that. Technically, that Assert could be up above the if (a == NULL)
check, but I didn't think it mattered that much and opted to keep both
Asserts together. The difference being that bms_prev_member(NULL, -2)
will return -2 rather than Assert fail. I'm not too worried about
that, but if you feel strongly differently, I can adjust what I just
pushed.
