// BIG RED TODO NOTE: On x86_64, the C ABI should also be used for extern(D)
// functions, as mandated by the language standard and required for DMD
// compatibility. The below description and implementation dates back to the
// time where x86_64 was still an exotic target for D. Also, the frontend
// toArgTypes() machinery should be used for doing the type classification to
// reduce code duplication and make sure the va_arg implementation is always
// up to date with the code we emit.
