I know.

There are some types of callback:
(a) callback called from a function such as qsort() that receives the callback.
(b) callback called after setting it like signal().
(c) callback called with user-data. (some GUI APIs,...)
(d) others?
I think we can remove restrictions regarding (a) and (c) in a lot of cases.
However, I can't find out any solution regarding (b).
We must consider that we need N callbacks in callback.func if functions
require N callbacks that have same prototype at the same time,
