The type (const char ***) is also incorrect for this semantic.

Unfortunately, C++ forces us to cast to void* just to implement PetscFree()
and that discards const. If we could write in C, we could use the implicit
conversion to void* without discarding const.

There are workarounds like

#define PetscCast(type,var) static_cast<type>(var)

that would not discard the const qualifier.
