Can const = constref on stdcall convention?
Only on Windows, because on other platforms that would change the
meaning of existing stdcall routines (and on all non-i386 platforms,
the default calling convention is pocall_stdcall).
Well, it could be done since "const" is implementation-dependent, but
it would force all non-x86 platforms to pass all const parameters by
reference by default, which may not be desirable from an efficiency
point of view.
