I suppose we could introduce a macro along the lines of:
#define ALLOC(bytes, type) \
((type *) xmalloc (bytes))
The cast would then be in this one place, making it rather
non-controversial to include it, I would think.
I agree. This makes the code at the call site much cleaner and also
allows for changing strategies for casting without making huge changes
to the sources each time.
