Hi.
 Given a POSIXy unix, with lots of inline assembly interlaced in the C
with Gcc asm(""), consider losing all the asm("") in lieu of C-called
assembly and inlined C. This presents a factoring problem for header files
and so on relative to unix. Given also that Plan 9's header structure is
the best for languages like C, and given that we want that Plan9ism, but
not the cross-compile facilities any time soon, how would you restructure
the sources? (I'll be presuming my whole world is one cpu.) I know I'll
need a cpu.S, a cpu.o, but then things get variable. I'll also probably be
doing ld-related #pragmas, and maybe a mk or a proto-mk in sh, but I don't
know that that pertains to the above issue if I just assume one CPU. Care
to comment, maestros?
