The 2600 line package body of Claw.Sockets has two instances
of address-access conversion, both of the form:
      P_Aliased_Data := To_Pointer(To_Address(P_Aliased_Data)
                                   + Storage_Offset(Result));
It has 10 instantiations of Unchecked_Conversion (localized in
specific routines), in two forms:
      (Interfaces.C.Char, Ada.Streams.Stream_Element);
and
      (Source => Object_Pointer, Target => Claw.Win32.Lpcstr);
