	My question is this:

	Why does a char * * not naturally promote to a
	char const * const *?

	The following is legal and generates no compiler
	warning:

		char const * foo;
		char *       bar;

		foo = bar;
		// bar = foo;  // Not allowed without cast.


	But why not this:

		char const * const * foo_array;
		char * *             bar_array;

		foo_array = bar_array;

	On every compiler I've tried, I get a warning about this,
	something like "assignment from incompatible pointer type."


	Can anyone clear this up for me?
