For some reason, the djgpp dox documents libc and iostreams, but not basic
C constructs like switch and for, C++ ones like class and templates, nor
does it document some things like varargs. This is a major pain in the
keister. Some information can be had by inspecting varargs.h and stdarg.h,
and djtypes.h,or library sources (printf for instance), but these are
cryptic unless you know a shitload of stuff about headers and typedef and
other wizard level stuff.
