That is true, however the initial code that had the bug was like this:
int status;
...
pthread_join(id, (void **)(void *)&status);

(Which is a wrong fix for a gcc warning)

Maybe I should raise this on gcc bugzilla instead? (gcc could give me
some warning here).

After you showed me that gcc can give warnings on similar construct I
have to agree.
