/* Constraints:
 * There are two conventions for specifying data type constaints. I
 * don't know how the compiler chooses between them, but I suspect it
 * is based on ensuring that linker names are unique.
 * Convention 1. The data type modifier is given first, followed
 *   by the data type it operates on. '?' means passed by value,
 *   'A' means passed by reference. Note neither of these characters
 *   is a valid base data type. This is then followed by a character
 *   specifying constness or volatilty.
 * Convention 2. The base data type (which is never '?' or 'A') is
 *   given first. The character modifier is optionally given after
 *   the base type character. If a valid character mofifier is present,
 *   then it only applies to the current data type if the character
 *   after that is not 'A' 'B' or 'C' (Because this makes a convention 1
 *   constraint for the next data type).
 *
 * The conventions are usually mixed within the same symbol.
 * Since 'C' is both a qualifier and a data type, I suspect that
 * convention 1 allows specifying e.g. 'volatile signed char*'. In
 * convention 2 this would be 'CC' which is ambigious (i.e. Is it two
 * pointers, or a single pointer + modifier?). In convention 1 it
 * is encoded as '?CC' which is not ambigious. This probably
 * holds true for some other types as well.
