Unfortunately, that won't work with the strict aliasing rules either
since it's undefined behavior to reinterpret a union by dereferencing
more than member. That is, once you assign to one field of a union,
you can read from/write to that field only. You can, however,
reinterpret anything as a char * and dereference, hence why memcopy
etc. aren't undefined.
