I noticed that both UnsafePointer and UnsafeMutablePointer have the identical method
public func withMemoryRebound<T, Result>(to: T.Type, capacity count: Int, _ body: (UnsafeMutablePointer<T>) throws -> Result) rethrows -> Result so that rebinding an immutable pointer gives you a _mutable_ pointer. That is different from what Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<Pointee> { func withMemoryRebound<T>(to: T.Type, capacity count: Int, _ body: (Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<T>) throws -> ()) rethrows } in https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0107-unsaferawpointer.md indicates. Perhaps I am misunderstanding something. Shouldn't rebinding an UnsafePointer result in an UnsafePointer again?
