Using void * for function pointers in C is non-portable. There is no reason a 
C implementation could represent char * and void * differently, where there 
existed (or still exist?) implementations which represented other pointers 
differently (word-addressed Crays where char * and void * need to store a 
small byte offset in addition to the native pointer).
