/* An evil hack.  The sources in src/* are compiled with
   -Wcast-qual so that the compiler will warn about any conversion
   of (char*) to (const char*), even explicit.
   Yet there are few case (like when calling a system function
   with a dubious prototype) where such cast is required.

   So we simply define a function that do that.  Because this
   function is compiled in lib/ where -Wcast-qual is not used,
   we avoid the warning.  This incur a sligh run-time penalty, but
   we don't care; this is really seldom used.  */
