Semantically, both static_cast and functional cast are fine there, and have the
exact same meaning. Syntactically, functional cast can only be used if
wanted_type is a simple-type-specifier (e.g., it cannot be used if wanted_type
is "unsigned long"). Apart from that, I at least have no clear preference for
either (functional cast is less verbose, though), and am not sure whether such
a cosmetic clean-up is worth it and wanted.
