I assume you made a typo here, and you mean char *. Nobody here has
heard of an achar *. (Right?)

And void pointers should be perfectly safe for 64 bit archs. And we've
been pretty good in the code about specify uint16_t when we mean 16 bits,
uint32_t when we mean 32, etc.

Who knows if we support 64 bit architectures. We don't have any users
yet who want it. I'll worry about it when we do.
