Whenever I see a cast these days, I think that there must be an
aliasing bug. But if there's one in this code, I don't see it.
Offhand I don't recall hearing of a bug like this.
The cast got me thinking, because GetStringUTFChars returns `const
char *', and I'm trying to keep the code -Werror clean, so I cast it
to `char *'. Changing everything to `const char *' in both the JNI
function and the `local_bind' function does nothing, though.
My workaround so far is to add this to `local_bind':
