Changing arg type for 't' and 'T' specifiers

I am considering changing the required arg storage type for 't' and 'T'
specifiers from void* to zstr*, since they can return either char* or
UChar* and the zstr union encapsulates both. Thoughts on this?

I haven't heard complaints about zstr from Win32 users, so I guess it
does.

I agree.
I already use "zstr*" instead of (void**) in ext/soap code.
