+The original bug is fixed, but the fix introduces a new bug:
+
+When making pointer arithmetic with a void* pointer, the pointer
+simply gets incremented by 0 bytes (sizeof void), but there should be
+a compiler error.
+
+The MS compiler gives the error message: "error CS0242: The operation
+in question is undefined on void pointers"
