Actually it works just fine via Logic 9's 32bit bridge when running in 64bit mode - and in the VST 64-bit world, it works in the various flavours of 32bit bridges also.

This only really would make any sense if you have any actual intention of supporting full DSP/GUI seperation. There's no reason I can think of why passing raw pointers around is a bad thing *within a single process* if the programmer knows sufficient C++ to be dangerous.
