yes, without undefinited behaviour we have the portable assembly, we have
the cpu the language define
type of fixed size, operation without UB on these types, a stack
and a stack pointer for define push32, pop32 etc and
a portable way of calling32

not the binary, but the result of the compilation

good both, stdcall i remember i like more

i don't like that
