I suggest following POSIX's lead and omitted the const in these cases. Ah... Yes I see this in strstr for example.

Thanks, that sounds reasonable. This is basically what I have done in the patch I hope. I have updated the patch to include a comment explaining why output param is char ** and the need for a cast.

Have I address the issues sufficiently for the patch to be accepted?

Should I go ahead a create the python 3 version of the patch?
