What is a portable way of getting a 'Octet *' from a 'const char *'?
I have a auto_ptr<ostringstream> (oss) and want to return a
sequence<octet> and came up with this monster:

ucgi::sequence_of_octets_var r =3D new ucgi::sequence_of_octets(oss->str().=
size(),=20
	oss->str().size(), (CORBA::Octet *) oss->str().c_str());             =20
return r._retn();

but the c-style cast bugs me so is there a better way without making
another copy?
