However, with some careful consideration, clang could possibly consider making it a magic type, if there is only a very small number of such hacks required to parse windows.h.

static_cast isn't a template, it's an operator. Does MSVC accept 
"IUnknown * i;" or "static_cast <foo*>(ptr)" when IUnknown and foo 
haven't been declared?
