Oops.  My intention was to return num_vtx*num_dim.  That's what my SIDL 
implementation did, and what the unit testing code checks for 
(obviously, I haven't run unit test with a 2D mesh; I wonder what else 
I'll find...).  But my C implementation for 2D appears to share a bit 
too much code with my 3D implementation....
