<dd>This calling convention attempts to make calls as fast as possible
(e.g. by passing things in registers). This calling convention allows the
target to use whatever tricks it wants to produce fast code for the target,
- without having to conform to an externally specified ABI. This calling
- convention does not support varargs and requires the prototype of all callees
- to exactly match the prototype of the function definition.
