So as near as I can tell, it's trying to say
"On non-Windows platforms, both extern (C) and extern (D) match the
calling convention of the platforms C compiler. On Windows, the extern
(D) calling convention differs, and is documented below:"
Is this accurate?
If so, there's is no way I am wasting my time with the D calling
convention. I'm not wrangling LLVM into producing DM OMF, so binary
compatibility isn't going to happen anyway.
If not, then I have no idea.
For x86-32 dmd uses a fastcall, where EAX can contain a parameter, for
Windows AND all other supported OSes.
This is different from cdecl where parameters are always passed on the
stack.
For x86-64 D follows the SysV AMD64 ABI, don't know about Windows.
