Such C++ prckages can use reinterpret_cast<>.

C packages can use dedicated macros, if they really think the need

Well,  you and I have different notions of "average programmer".
Obvioulsy the cast-as-lvalue abomination is not something the averaget
programmer would jump into.

Probably, this sort of situations probably happen because some people
have been encouraged in conceiving programming as an activity of
throwing random codes to the compiler and see what happens.
