That's why I changed that. I don't think it causes actual problems, all
elements can easily be casted into each other.
Thinking about my proposition to introduce a union in async_private,
it may not be such a good idea after all. It would only be necessary
if we were relying on the size of an async_private struct somewhere
(e.g. using arrays of async_private's). This seems not to be the case,
and thus we can take a similar approach as is taken with sock_addr
structs. More reasonable than the union would be a header
field indicating the type of the asycnc_private struct in question,
but they can also be identified through the function pointers they use.
