obivously, the compiler thinks that "void*" is a pointer to an object,
and it knows that we need a pointer to a function, and ISO C++ forbids
the conversion between the two...
weird, it doesn't happen anywhere else (and i'm not sure that they are
right in saying that (void*) is indeed a pointer to an object...)


anyhow, i hope i fixed it with rev4361
