   In the message you were responding to, I was talking about declarations,   
   not expressions.

   I'm curious - in what context did you encounter that code? As written,   
   it's an expression, and foo would have to be a pointer to an object,   
   which would be a change of subject from the previous messages in this   
   thread.   
      
   However,   
      
        (void) *foo;   
      
   would be a declaration equivalent to   
      
       void *foo;   
      
   which is a pointer to void, which would fit the context of our previous   
   discussion. Could that be what you're actually asking about?
