I don't really understand what this patch tries to achieve.  From the
description above, I thought you wanted to make the m_aspace field const,
not the pointed object.

If constifying the pointed address_space object is really what you meant to
do, I find having the const_cast more confusing than anything else.  I think
we should constify all the way (removing const_casts, putting more consts
where needed) or not at all.
