I'm investigating a phobos regression. From "doesPointTo":

Basically, given a "pointer like" structure, I want the void*
equivalent. I really don't care about how "S" works, and am
"observing" the "source" object as nothing more than a bag of
member fields.
The issue though is that it turns out that such code can and
will call either opCast or alias this, which is *not* what we
want at all in this piece of code.
Is there any way to do a "hard" reinterpret cast in such a
situation?
*cast(void**)&source
Hum... now I feel retarded.
In my mind I had "I want re-interpret, not address of, so no
operator&".
Thanks.
