#rustlang peeps, c_char has different signedness on x86_64 vs. aarch64 (i8 vs. u8).

Do you get frequent shit like

returns_a_c_str().to_ptr() as *const _

with a warning about a trivial cast, on either platform? Short of disabling the "trivial casts" warning, is there a good way of fixing that portably?

@federicomena perhaps use actual into conversions. I never got that though, so yeah, not much to add unfortunately
