exactly. if you want to convert object to a pointer safely, do this:
MyObject o;
void* p = *cast(void**)&o;
this magic construct guarantees that you won't hit `opCast()` in
`MyObject` (yes, somebody *can* write weird `opCast` for `void*`! ;-).
doing just `&o` gives you the address of a variable (on a stack, or in a
tls), which is, obviously, never `null`. ;-)
