That would be incompatible with C++ since (void*) doesn't automatically
convert to (char*) by default. I'd like to avoid such incompatibilities
because I'd like to be able to use a C++ compiler at some point to catch
things like enum mismatches. I suppose we could have NULLCHARPTR for
variadic functions expecting (char*) which is the common case.
