The comment for the Pointer type said 'XXX Pointer arithmetic is done with this, so it can't be void * under "true" ANSI compilers.'. This has been fixed in the previous commit756a436893. This now changes the definition of the type from char * to void *, as envisaged by that comment. Extension code that relies on using Pointer for pointer arithmetic will need to make changes similar to commit756a436893, but those changes would be backward compatible.
