Hold on--
		*in++
has mode char, and hence can't validly have & applied to it.
(Sorry about the Algol68 vocabulary, but it's the only way to
untangle the mess C makes of types.) If a particular C compiler
figures it can collapse &*, well, that's its business, but
it's certainly not to be counted on.
