Any numba equivalent for casting a raw pointer to a StructRef, Dict, List etc?

Another trick to keep in mind if moving around/storing first-class functions is giving you trouble is that you can get the address of a function as an integer (via numba.experimental.function_type._get_wrapper_address) , pass that around as you like and reconstruct the function with cre.utils._func_from_address.

Do you happen to have any thoughts or observations regarding the performance implications (if any) of calling/using first-class functions vs casting them?
