I'm afraid you're abusing the structure of c++.  The problem is that
myfunc is of type "void (x::*)(void)" not "void (*)(void)".
I.e., pointers to (nonstatic) member functions and pointers to 
nonmember functions do not mix.  This is partly because member 
functions take an implicit "this" pointer which regular functions 
do not have.
