Why/how does the OS dictate how in a user program the functions are 
called ? (In fact in an ASM program you can use whatever calling 
convention you like).

OK, you can't use registers the OS does not save in interrupts etc, also 
there are restrictions regarding threadvars, but this does not seem to 
be the problem, you describe.
