So, I think what the code in question is trying to do is convert a ptr to a a different type while keeping the same "number" in memory. It's just a way so they can convert something to an integer to add/remove values from. And then it's converted back to a pointer type. > Maybe we should just disable the warning in question for this crufty > code? But this might be a lot easier actually. Following diff works for me. Does this still compile with LLVM 5.0.1? I have no machine to test at the moment.
