Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.
Swift SVN r24504
The syntax being reverted added busywork and noise to the common case
where you want to say "I have the right address, but the wrong type,"
without adding any real safety.
Also it eliminated the ability to write UnsafePointer<T>(otherPointer),
without adding ".self" to T. Overall, it was not a win.
This reverts commits r21324 and r21342
Swift SVN r21424
Previously, it was possible to write Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer(x) and have
Swift deduce the pointee type based on context. Since reinterpreting
memory is a fundamentally type-unsafe operation, it's better to be
explicit about conversions from Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<T> to
Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<U>. This change is consistent with the move from
reinterpretCast(x) to unsafeBitCast(x, T.self).
Also, we've encoded the operations of explicitly adding or removing
mutability as properties, so that adding mutability can be separated
from wild reinterpretCast'ing, a much more severe form of unsafety.

modifiers and with the func implementations of the operators. This resolves the rest of:
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
Swift SVN r19931
We haven't been advertising this syntax much, and it's closure form
was completely broken anyway, so don't jump through hoops to provide
great Fix-Its here.
