Only the (void*) -> (any*) direction requires a cast in C++, the other
direction is still converted implicitly.
For this reason, I always cast the result of malloc to the proper type;
it just feels wrong otherwise.
Yes, if the cast looks odd to you, you probably don't go back far
enough.
I've certainly used compilers that warned when you didn't have a cast
there.
