Certainly no objection on this end, although the benefits seem to be
pretty small. Perhaps it would make even better sense if we added both
the char_ptr and the vector definition?  Would that have any negative
effect in terms of amount of code?

If char_p is defined together with the associated vector, then I don't
mind it. But defined on its own, I agree char_ptr is better.

(not that it really matters all that much...)
