Can you show the code you're using to typecast the char pointer?

I'm not sure I'm doing the same thing you're trying to do, but I was 
able to do the following:

#pragma mapinc("test","BMORRIS/MAPINCF(REC)","key","")
#include "test"
main()
{
    BMORRIS_MAPINCF_REC_key_t keys;
    char *p;

    p = (char *)&keys;
}

I didn't get a _Packed struct though. I just got an ordinary struct.

 From the listing:
    typedef   struct {
       char K1[10];
       char K2[10];
    } BMORRIS_MAPINCF_REC_key_t;
