If the net.Addr is stored in the variable 'a', you should be able
to use a type switch:

a.(*net.TCPAddr)

I'd just like to point out that's not a "type switch"
it's a "type assertion".

A "type switch" is different

Ah, thanks. I knew that when typing the message, but couldn't remember
it on the spot.
