But wouldn't you want the test to break, if size_t were changed? Otherwise
you could hide the fact that the test needed some work, to cope with the
size_t change.

This is from tests/libc/ansi/dos/io/putpath.c:

You get a warning if you just do a cast, because some qualifiers are
discarded (const, I guess). I've updated the tests to use unconst instead
of strdup now. I'll check the unconst fixes in.

Thanks for looking at the patch. Bye, Rich =]
