I think that they should use OidIsValid() on correctness ground, and
that's the style I prefer.  Now, I don't think that these are worth
changing now except if some of the surrounding code is changed for a
different reason.  One reason is that this increases the odds of
conflicts when backpatching on a stable branch.
