TypeManip::compound() strips const, so T*& and T* const& both reach the converter factory as "*&" and were rejected alike. The callee cannot rebind the pointer through a T* const&, which is the ban's sole rationale; ask the type via a new interop::IsMutablePtrRefType (the referenced type is a pointer and not const-qualified) and route const ones to the regular instance-pointer converters. In the string-based factory a name that resolves to no type keeps the ban.
