Although this looks very straightforward, I do have some questions. AFAIK, 
SUSv2 explicitly defines strchr as taking a const char * arg. The cast 
should not be necessary. Additionally, [conv.ptr] of the C++ standard 
clearly allows conversion of any pointer type to a void pointer. 
Furthermore, a quick search of the code finds several other instances where 
both strchr() and memcpy() are used with the same parameter types, so if 
these two instances need this kind of a patch, how come the other instances 
don't?
