Did we resolve that issue that way? I was quite convinced we had  
finally decided for "every pointer is a C-style pointer" precisely  
because of this kind of problems. Mmmh, I'd better check today with  
the rest of the team. Are there other cases where we have a function  
pointer that is not a C-style function pointer?
