Ah yes, you're right. That is the convention.

Well possibly I'm being over-paranoid, but given that it may have come
via a previous invocation of rewriteValuesRTE() that may have
completely rebuilt the lists, it seemed best to be sure that it hadn't
done something unexpected. It's about to use that to read from the
attrnos array, so it might read beyond the array bounds if any of the
prior logic was faulty.

Thanks for looking.
