Don't do that. object_getInstanceVariable() and object_setInstanceVariable() 
still assume the ivar is of an object pointer type.

Instead, use class_getInstanceVariable() and ivar_getOffset() and pointer 
arithmetic.

    Ivar ivar = class_getInstanceVariable([YourClass class], "YourIvarName");
    assert(ivar);
    int *ivarPtr = (int *)((uint8_t *)obj + ivar_getOffset(ivar));
    *ivarPtr = 42;
