Topic: ostream question

Our ostream header declares operator<<(ostream&,void*) but has a declaration
for operator<<(ostream&, const void*) commented out.  Another implementation
for a later version of the same OS has only operator<<(ostream&,void*).  The
writeup in the (April) DWP has only the void* output operator as well.

Would it make sense to add operator<<(ostream&,const void*) ?
If not, why not?
