I thought we cast without SP after the (typename), i.e.

	gpointer *data = (gpointer *)user_data;

It could be argued that a cast that turns a "void *" to a pointer to
another type can go, as Felipe noted, but I think that is better
done in a separate patch, perhaps as a follow-up to this "small
stylistic clean-ups".

I said "it could be argued" above, because I am on the fence on that
change.  If this were not using a type "gpointer", whose point is to
hide what the actual implementation of that type is, but a plain
vanilla "void *", then I would not have any doubt.  But it feels
wrong to look behind that deliberate "gpointer" abstraction and take
advantage of the knowledge that it happens to be implemented as
"void *" (and if we do not start from that knowledge, losing the
cast is a wrong change).

So...
