[openbeos] Re: internal_function

From more search:

+/* On some platforms we can compile internal, not exported functions 
better.
+   Let the environment provide a macro and define it to be empty if it
+   is not available.  */
+#ifndef internal_function
+# define internal_function
+#endif

It looks like the Amiga calling convention :)

Now, it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere in gcc manuals...
http://www.google.fr/search?q=site%3Agcc.gnu.org+internal_function&btnG
=Recherche+Google&hl=fr&ie=ISO-8859-1
So I suppose in the glibc sources it's #defined as __asm__ or 
something.
