  /// registers (better for performance), and the variadic arguments

  /// compatible parameters.  Therefore, splitting the conventions
  /// makes it impossible to call a variadic function through an
  /// unprototyped type.  Since function prototypes came out in the
  /// late 1970s, this is probably an acceptable trade-off.

  /// for passing additional out-of-band information to a variadic
  /// function: for example, x86-64 passes the number of SSE
  /// arguments in %al.  On these platforms, it is desirable to
  /// call unprototyped functions using the variadic convention so
  /// that unprototyped calls to varargs functions still succeed.
