Sorry, I'm a little slow today.  I can understand that you want to use
different callback routines for the different tests, but I don't
understand why you want to use iso_callback for a bulk test.  Do you
plan to rename the callback as well as the structure?

Would it make more sense for the extra argument here to be a pointer to 
the callback function, instead of a flag?

I don't see anything bad about using a common structure for two 
different purposes, so long as the comments explain what is happening.
