Argh.

Thanks, pushed.  I changed the line to be just below TypeShellMake,
which seems slightly better aligned to the comment just below, and in
fact it matches what DefineRange already uses.  I also modified a couple
of other places involving TypeCreate: one did not have the "typoid =
addr.objectId" assignment at all; while the other did, it actually seems
misplaced because at that spot we expect that typoid is already correct.
So I added an assert to the other place and changed that assignment to
an assert, too.

I scanned the rest of the bogus commit and couldn't find any other place
on which I made the same mistake.

Thanks for reporting,
