I am looking for an equivalent way to specify a typecast of a pointer to 
a function other than using typedef.  For Example:

  typedef int (*FCN_PTR) ();
  FCN_PTR     fcn_ptr1;
  int         (*fcn_ptr2) (); 

  fcn_ptr1 = (FCN_PTR) NULL;  /* Typecast using typedef */
  fcn_ptr2 = (???????) NULL;  /* Do Not Use the typedef.  What Goes Here? */

Any Suggestions?  Thanks.
