Also, (void *)0 is a null pointer, even in a stdargs function: as Ian pointed out, NULL-the-macro may be defined as '0', which is not a pointer in a stdargs context and may have a different bit value.

Who maintains dpkg? Posted Mar 21, 2008 4:22 UTC (Fri) by mikov (subscriber, #33179) [Link] It took me by surprise that most people here expect NULL to be (void)0. My impression from the C and C++ standards (which admittedly I haven't looked at recently) is that 0 is the preferable definition for NULL. Not 0L and not (void)0. (I know that GCC's headers define it as (void)0. However if it was changed to plain 0, all correct ANSI C programs should continue to work!) So, the only clearly correct, portable and even stylistically preferable solution in this case is ((char*)0). I am surprised that there is discussion about it at all.
