 * Sets the outparam value of type |To| with the same underlying bit pattern of
 * |aFrom|.
 *
 * |To| and |From| must be types of the same size; be careful of cross-platform
 * size differences, or this might fail to compile on some but not all
 * platforms.
 *
 * There is also a variant that returns the value directly.  In most cases, the
 * two variants should be identical.  However, in the specific case of x86
 * chips, the behavior differs: returning floating-point values directly is done
 * through the x87 stack, and x87 loads and stores turn signaling NaNs into
 * quiet NaNs... silently.  Returning floating-point values via outparam,
 * however, is done entirely within the SSE registers when SSE2 floating-point
 * is enabled in the compiler, which has semantics-preserving behavior you would
 * expect.
 *
 * If preserving the distinction between signaling NaNs and quiet NaNs is
 * important to you, you should use the outparam version.  In all other cases,
 * you should use the direct return version.
