----------------
No, it only checks whether VTableClass has novtable.  VTableClass is the 
derived class for which we're initializing subobject v-tables, and it's 
invariant during getVTablePointers; that's why it's passed separately from 
BaseSubobject.

And if you think about how novtable works as a language feature, you'll see 
that it has to be that way.  The purpose of "novtable" is to avoid emitting 
v-tables just for the short-term purposes of construction and destruction.  
It's not supposed to apply when initializing derived classes: eventually, the 
complete object does need all the v-tables to be initialized, or else you'll 
never be able to call virtual methods on it, meaning that it might as well not 
have any.
