I actually don't see anything that promises that a pointer to a function type may be converted to a pointer to void, nor back again (except, in each direction, when the original pointer is nil), much less promising anything about the results if it is done.

Sorry, I did not express myself clearly enough. C does not promise that function pointers can be converted to or from void* pointers, but I believe that all existing NetBSD implementations do allow such conversions.
