Why was dest_addr cast to void *? It seems to me this way leads to
lossage! (On my system, the sizeof (void *) is 4).
unfortunately, i don't recall why i made this change. it might be
documented in a list somewhere, but due to the terseness of our
ChangeLog entries, i don't know the _why_ anymore. certainly, with
sid as it currently is, dest_addr can never be >32 bits, so it would
not have failed (yet.)
