The body of these functions is so trivial that one wonders why they aren't
written in-line anyway, or at least wrapped in a macro.

In neither case would you consider checking the pointers, so why do so when
in function form?

They wouldn't need checking because it is assumed, in in-line code, that
pointers are valid, or they have already been validated.

if functions A(p) and B(p) both validate their pointer using magic numbers
or whatever, what happens when A() calls B(p)? Two lots of validity checking
will be done! Suppose there is a chain of such calls (with some recursive
algorithm for example)?

It seems this can get out of hand. When we have trusted pointers, we need a
way of communicating the fact to library functions so that a program doesn't
spend half it's time checking arguments for no purpose. Perhaps two sets of
each function, one fast and one safe.
