Hi all,
Converting to and from void * for callback functions loses type safety: everywhere else we expect the compiler to catch incorrect pointer types handed to functions.
It's pretty simple to create typesafe callback functions using typeof, and with a little gcc trickery we can allow both old-style and typesafe callbacks to avoid churn on commonly-used routines.
Feedback welcomed, Rusty.
