I've been in this game too long :-)
There used to be problems with systems that defined NULL with other
values - but that pre-dated ANSI C.

K&R2 says (A6.6) "An integral constant expression with value 0, or such an
expression cast to type void *, may be converted, by a cast, by assignment
or by comparison, to a pointer to any type."

So I stand corrected :-(
(execpt on the point of grammer in the lack of a ',' after the 'or'!)
