[Mono-list] Possible bug with casting struct pointers

[Alan West]

Hi, I've started working on bindings for DirectFB, and seem to have come 
across my first bug with mcs using the following code. I got my old Windows 
XP hard disk plugged in to try it out in VS.NET and all was fine... mcs I'm 
using was built from cvs about a week ago, I was gonna try the current cvs 
but it wont build now due to code in the Mono.Data.TdsClient area.

using System;

namespace testapp{
	public unsafe class LibTestAPI{

		struct LibTestStruct{
			void* pData;
			void* pTest1;
		}

		LibTestStruct* the_struct;

		public void Create(){
			IntPtr MyPtr = new IntPtr(0); // Usually created elsewhere
			the_struct = (LibTestStruct*) MyPtr.ToPointer();  // error CS1002
		}
	}

	class TestApp{
		[STAThread]
		static void Main(string[] args){
			LibTestAPI myapi = new LibTestAPI();
			myapi.Create();
		}
	}
}
