I'm a bit concerned about introducing warnings from not-quite-with-it
compilers. Are there any still out there that would treat this as a
bogus conversion?

While I agree that casting pfree's argument is just pedantry, I'm not
quite sold on the proposition for less well-known functions such as
the _walker family. You could take it as a flag that "yes I mean to
treat this pointer as a generic object now". I'm not dead set on that
reasoning but it's something to think about.

Any other opinions out there?
