You're a little confused.
It also works in cases where the pointer points at a struct vcache sized
piece of memory, instead of a struct vnode sized chunk acquired from
getnewvnode(), whis is what afs does on all the platforms except
OSF/DUX/Tru64. Note that a struct vcache is defined as follows:
struct vcache {
struct vnode v; /* Has reference count in v.v_count
*/
struct afs_q vlruq; /* lru q next and prev */
[...more..]

This change isn't necessarily bad, but fixing the big issue is more
complicated than getting rid of the casts.

Assuming the CVS head is otherwise stable, it should actually work on
freebsd. I never got my sparc64 machine working well under netbsd, so I
never got around to fixing up that port...
