As Henri said, you can return a pointer (which gives you the NULL value 
to signal a missing field) and then use pointer arithmetic to work out 
the index.

Returning -1 is also fine for me, I don't know if that's acceptable in 
vkd3d.

Personally I would try to avoid pointers-as-return-values when possible.
