Both C and C++ have "bool", "true" and "false" in lower case; C
requires <stdbool.h> for this, in C++ it is an inherent type built
into the compiler. Use those instead of the old macros; emulate with
a simple typedef enum if unavailable.
Concentrate compiler dependencies to compiler.h; make sure compiler.h
is included first in every .c file (since some prototypes may depend
on the presence of feature request macros.)
Actually use the conditional inclusion of various functions (totally
broken in previous releases.)
Per SF bug report 1351586:
The COFF spec suggests that the "Virtual Size" field (which
immediately follows the name field inside a section header) be set to
0 for an object file.
By contrast (as documented in comment #4 at the beginning of its
outcoff.c file) NASM sets it to a particular non-0 value.
MASM 6.15 matches NASM for both 16- and 32-bit object files,
i.e. emits non-0 values.
MASM 8 (from VS 2005 Beta) matches the COFF spec for 64-bit object
files, i.e. emits 0.
GAS matches the COFF spec for 32-bit object files (MinGW or Cygwin),
i.e. also emits 0.
Older versions of GNU ld seem to honor said "Virtual Size" field
whereas newer versions do not. As a result those older versions
generate "bloated" image files.
Since the COFF spec and the real world seem to disagree for this case,
it might make sense to add a method for selecting between the two to
NASM.

MASM 8 (from VS 2005 Beta) also matches the COFF spec for 16- and
32-bit object files, i.e. emits 0.
That said, NASM should always emit 0 too. Therefore I am turning this
from a support request into a bug.
Minor fixes to make it possible to compile with MS Visual C++ 2005.
Unfortunately, MSVC++ is not fully C99 compliant; in particular, it
doesn't handle interspersed declarations and other code. Furthermore,
it chokes on some expressions in outelf64.c, which fortunately can be
easily substituted with simpler expressions.
Finish the perfect hash tokenizer, and actually enable it.
Move stdscan() et al to a separate file, since it's not needed in any
of the clients of nasmlib other than nasm itself.
Run make alldeps.
Move anything compiler-specific to "compiler.h".
There was an unguarded use of __attribute__(()) in outmacho.c; also
require gcc 4+ for __builtin_ctlz(). Speed up the open-coded version, too.
- Remove obsolete types like "uint32"; use "uint32_t" consistently.
- Make sure we include <inttypes.h> where needed.
- Header file guards should be FOO_H or SUBDIR_FOO_H; _FOO_H infringes
on the C implementation's namespace and should only be used when
writing libc!
- Change a few "int8_t" back to "char" where appropriate. There are
a lot more places where that should be done, though.
- Clean up the check for getuid/getgid in rdoff/rdlar.h.
Change symbols from saa to explicitly allocated.
macho_layout_symbols: new function to sort symbols and renumber.
adjust symtab output accordingly
fixup relocs after renumbering
add relocation debugging routines.
Export/import/common label size is increased from 33 to 64. Fixed the bug
that caused wrong behavior of rdfgetheaderrec() if label length was 32.
Changed error codes from numeric values to symbolic constants.
Moved some routines from rdfdump.c to rdoff.c. They will be utilized also
by rdfdisasm, which is being developed.
