Tango does not compile (just ./build/build.sh ), but stops with an error

{{{
.../Thread.d(659): Error: e2ir: cannot cast from tango.core.Thread.Thread to
void*
}}}

this is just a cast of this to void*, even rewriting the lines like this
{{{
                void *arg=cast(void*)cast(Object)this;
                if( pthread_create( &m_addr, &attr, &thread_entryPoint, arg )
!= 0 )
}}}

gives an error casting this.

Unfortunately just about any reduced example work...

both 1.048 and 1.049 have this issue, it is a blocker for tango.
