You can't take sizeof(void); (that gcc allows you to is a gcc extension).
But anyway, this wouldn't quite do anything useful, since it would give
always the same size back no matter what pointer was passed to the
function.
If you want to do this, you have to do it in the macro: but, as I wrote
before, it will work only pointers to single structures only, not multiple
ones.
