It is good to have a way to test for the existence of macro functions,
and since they are really just a special case of single-line macros,
allow %ifdef to test for them instead of coming up with something
entirely new.

The format wasn't actually uleb128 because it was accidentally
bigendian (like UTF-8). That is just begging for confusion in the
future, if and when the uleb128 code gets librarized.

The very simple compression scheme used for the builtin macro sets no
longer works adequately, and in fact it generates incorrect output
now.
Drop the whole idea of an ad hoc compression scheme and just use
zlib. For the case where there is no system zlib available, include a
(subset of) the zlib distribution. The configure script can be set to
force this included zlib if desired (e.g. for testing.)
Unfortunately this turned out to be a pretty painful can of worms in
terms of complexity. On the other hand having zlib available might be
useful at some point in the future.

%unmacro now *is* permitted on a macro being expanded; the entire
expansion is strictly performed when the macro is invoked, and the

Remove the legacy output entry point. It has proven impossible to find
the time to completely port the backends all at once.
Instead, always generate the legacy output data, but put them into the
out_data structure. Then add a macro to explode these arguments into
separate variables, equivalent to the old function arguments. This
also centralizes the type definitions for these variables.
Most importantly, it means that the entire struct out_data is now
always available, which means that backends that need the additional
information available in that structure, such as the specific
instruction template, can access that information without needing to
revamp the entire backend code all at once.

This code incorrectly would try to use "path" as the hash key instead
of full->path, causing the key in struct hash_insert to diverge from

Under some circumstances, such as:
- Certain uses of %exitrep in syntactically invalid code;
- %unmacro of a *alias* to a macro currently being expanded;
... it is possible for an mmacro to get freed while it is still in
use. Although inefficient, the easiest way to avoid this is to not
free mmacros until the end of pass cleanup, when named mmacros are
also freed.
To support this, use the existing ->next field in the MMacro structure
to keep a list of anonymous or removed MMacros. Don't free ->name at
this point, though, since that is currently used to distinguish
between %rep's and %macro's. (This needs to be cleaned up to support
constructs such as %while or %for, but that is for later.)

The opcode D6 has been officially reserved as a single-byte permanent
undefined (#UD) opcode in 64-bit mode with the mnemonic UDB. This is
already the behavior of all known 64-bit implementations; this is thus
merely an official statement of forward compatibility and the
assignment of a mnemonic.
This will be documented in the next version of the Intel Software
Developer's Manual; in the meantime I DO speak officially for Intel on
this issue.
The x86 Advisory Council has ratified this decision, and so it is
expected to be honored across vendors, but I obviously cannot make any
official statement on any other vendor's behalf.

For some reason, these warnings are not included in -W -Wall -pedantic, at least
not on gcc 14.2.1:
-Wstrict-prototypes
-Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations
This caused a missing prototype error (because nasm_note[f]()
prototypes were missing from include/error.h) to get missed when
compiling with --enable-werror, which is ironic at best.

This differs from a plain old comment in the following ways:
1. It is optionally macro-expanded;
2. It has a dash prefix;
3. It can be used inside .nolist macros.
