[Pyrex] casting to a function pointer

[Simon Burton]

Consider this:

cdef void *p
p = <void*>0
( < int (*)() >p )()

Pyrex doesn't seem to produce correct code.

$ gcc func.c -I/usr/local/include/python2.3
func.c: In function `initfunc':
func.c:61: error: cast specifies function type

the relevant line in func.c:
  ((int ((void)))__pyx_v_4func_p)();

ie. pyrex is casting to a function, not a pointer to a function.

Also mentioned in 2003:

Is this a bug?

Simon.
