To answer your second question consider BOOL b = (BOOL)someObj; if someObj happens to equal something like 0x12345600 the value of b will be NO because casting from a pointer to a char will return the least significant byte.
For your first question I don't know exactly but it doesn't look safe; I think it works if the sizeof a pointer happens to equal the sizeof an int but I've never done this so I wouldn't know for sure.
