No idea why I have not seen it in any previous version, but this "sizeof(void 
*)" just made me thing "what is going on here?". I personally would have 
written something like "sizeof(to.var)" or "offsetof(to.buf)" or something like 
that. That makes it easier for me to understand what is skipped/zeroed here, 
let alone making it a bit more fool proof when someone changes one of the 
struct layouts. YMMV.
