16	 * A type cast to a union type is valid if the source type is any
17	 * member type of the union.  Since all union members with the same
18	 * type have the same representation, the name of the union member
19	 * doesn't matter.
20	 *
21	 * XXX: could there be padding bits or other tricky details that are
22	 * settable per-member?  These could make the type alone insufficient
23	 * for determining the exact representation.
24	 *
25	 * C99 6.5.4 "Cast operators" does not mention a union cast.  On the
26	 * contrary, it says that the type name shall specify a scalar type.
27	 *
28	 * C11 6.5.4 "Cast operators" differs from C99 but still requires
29	 * scalar types for both the target type and the source value.
30	 *
31	 * This is a GCC extension.
