Me too.  In the next day or so, all of the old subr_prop.c stuff is  
going away completely.  In the new world, you'll do:

	obj = prop_dictionary_get(device_properties(dev), "videomode");
	if (obj != NULL) {
		/* access the data in obj */
	}

In the new world order, if you want to test for "existing and non- 
empty", that depends on what kind of property object it is... if a  
string:

	if (obj != NULL && prop_string_size(obj) != 0)
		/* ... */

Anyway, it will all be clear in a day or two.
