Sorry, didn't know that.

(The change I'm currently using does use an intermediate uintptr_t
variable, but it's still two casts).

If the source is a wide integer and there's an intermediate uintptr_t 
variable (which sounds like a good idea), then you should need only one 
cast: from uintptr_t to void * (or whatever pointer type you prefer).

I try to avoid casts in C whenever possible, since they're too powerful. 
So I'd prefer a one-cast to a two-cast approach.
