It should be safe to cast the xdrf and xdrd variables to caddr_t. The
man page for the xdrmem_create function indicates that it is basically a
memory allocation function. Thus the xdrf and xdrd pointers point to the
new memory. Therefore, the cast should not only be safe but required in
my mind.

Talk to you later.
