(my-type-maker) returns a my-type struct the ptr field is an
#<cpointer:my-type-ptr>.

I placed a printf in the scheme->C lambda checking on what kind of value
is being returned and it is a #<cpointer:my-type-ptr>.

I'm trying to come up with a more concrete simple test (that could
actually just be run), that should expose the behavior.  Just need to find
a simple libc func to use...
