That solution may introduce unnecessary reference-and-dereference instructions, depending on the optimization level at compile time. I find it far easier to coerce the subject to the target, in this case with a simple (char **) in ILP32 mode. IMHO that should make the assignment much simpler for the compiler to generate optimally, and for the next programmer looking at it to decipher. ip.__miscitems = (char **)&miscitems; YMMV, and TMTOWTDI.
