    When a function takes a variable number of pointer arguments, with a zero · 11e26b52
    Jeff Cohen authored
    pointer marking the end of the list, the zero *must* be cast to the pointer
    type.  An un-cast zero is a 32-bit int, and at least on x86_64, gcc will
    not extend the zero to 64 bits, thus allowing the upper 32 bits to be
    random junk.
    
    The new END_WITH_NULL macro may be used to annotate a such a function
    so that GCC (version 4 or newer) will detect the use of un-casted zero
    at compile time.
