Apparently casting *const &'a T to *const &'b T directly doesn't work with as. Not sure if double cast as a workaround is really better than transmute.

What method is this? I thought it was this, but it looks like this was added at 1.38.0.

Okay. Can 1,38,0 { POINTER_CAST } be used for msrv?

Defensively add a cast to any type with lifetimes.
