Fix reinterpret_cast for classes with multiple inheritance
Currently a reinterpret_cast may change the pointer value if multiple inheritance is involved: ``` (gdb) p r $1 = (Right *) 0x22f75c (gdb) p reinterpret_cast<LeftRight*>(r) $2 = (LeftRight *) 0x22f758 ``` It's because value_cast is called in this case, which automatically does up- and downcasting. Fixed by simply using the target pointer type in a copy of the original value: ``` (gdb) p r $1 = (Right *) 0x3bf87c (gdb) p reinterpret_cast<LeftRight*>(r) $2 = (LeftRight *) 0x3bf87c ``` Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18861 Approved-By:Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
