- This definition comes from Xfuncproto.h in the core

- check the format string when built with
- -Wformat (gcc) or similar.
- * _X_EXPORT: this function should appear in symbol tables.
- * _X_HIDDEN: this function should not appear in the _dynamic_ symbol
- table.
- * _X_INTERNAL: like _X_HIDDEN, but attempt to ensure that this function
- is never called from another module.
- * _X_INLINE: inline this functon if possible (generally obeyed unless
- disabling optimisations).
- * _X_DEPRECATED: warn on use of this function.

- struct foo bar = { .baz = quux, .brian = "dog" };

-Use of OS and library facilities throughout the X server tree
--------------------------------------------------------------

-Non-OS-dependent code can assume facilities at least as good as
-the non-OS-facility parts of POSIX-1.2001. Ideally this would
-be C99, but even gcc+glibc doesn't implement that yet.
-
-Unix-like systems are assumed to be at least as good as UNIX03.
-
-Linux systems must be at least 2.4 or later. As a practical matter
-though, 2.4 kernels never receive any testing. Use 2.6 already.
-
-TODO: Solaris.
-
-TODO: *BSD.
-
-Code that needs to be portable to Windows should be careful to,
-well, be portable. Note that there are two Windows ports, cygwin and
-mingw. Cygwin is more or less like Linux, but mingw is a bit more
-restrictive. TODO: document which versions of Windows we actually care
-about.
-
-OSX support is generally limited to the most recent version. Currently
-that means 10.5.
