[PATCH] Small chicken.h fix to make taglib compile on MinGW

[Vasilij Schneidermann]

Hello everyone,

I've tried installing the taglib egg on my MinGW setup today and found
that including chicken.h in C++ mode fails with "invalid conversion from
'void*' to 'char*' [-fpermissive]". The included patch fixes this
problem.
