The first goal was to replace the typedefs, in a way that is obvious to
the reviewer. The next step is to get rid of void* where possible (I
agree with you that it is ugly).
Is it ok with you if we submit a separate patch train for that (since
there are quite some void* to be replaced) ?
Thanks, Roland.
