There isn't one--it's stupid.
So, I'm turning off the unused parameter warning for now to shut the .ops

more warnings than were currently being generated, and all submitted
patches must *not* generate warnings in the areas they patch.

Good point. I'll add a GenericPtr type we can use and have configure make
it the most restrictive we can.
