Re: typedef function with void parameters

So, which do you want -- a function taking a `void*` or a function taking
a `char*`? They're not compatible types. Pick one.

Oh, i thought that most pointer types could be converted/stored into
void pointer. I'm trying to wrap different function pointers into FUNC,
like,

,----
| int foo(char *p){}
| int bar(int *p){}
|
| typedef int (*FUNC)(void *);
|
| FUNC f1 = foo, f2 = bar;
`----

So, this is not allowed?
