I came up with those `#define`s by looking at test_c.c as d
complained about it. It includes these functions in the final

```c
static __uint16_t
__bswap_16 (__uint16_t __bsx)
{
return (__bsx);
}
static __uint32_t
__bswap_32 (__uint32_t __bsx)
{
return (__bsx);
}
static __uint64_t
__bswap_64 (__uint64_t __bsx)
{
return (__bsx);
}
```
initially those were defined in terms of compiler intrinsics
that d doesn't know about, and since they're not needed for
your use, I fixed this in the direction of making them no-ops.
They're part of stdlib.h, probably. What they do is endian
swaps, like the stuff in std.bitmanip
Cool! It now makes sense now.
importC is a new option, but it doesn't make old options go
away, and in this specific case an older option would've been
less trouble. That's all I'm saying.
Yeah agree, new options are a lot of times not there to make old
options obsolete and not used. Tho in this case, I think ImportC
will always makes sense against the old way of doing things. Even
if you have to do a little bit of work, it will still be nothing
compared if you had to make manual binding yourself...
Thanks a lot for the help, have an amazing day!!
