Re: Constifying patches break bindings

Adding 'const' to the pointer arguments of function _typedefs_ is an
API-incompatible change, and so I shall revert those parts of my r922239
commit.

I can't see any buildbot results that were affected by that commit,
however.
(<http://crest.ics.uci.edu/buildbot/waterfall?last_time=1268420000>
shows no change in results at r922239.)
