Yes. I'm translating C headers of Tcl library. None of __stdcall or PASCAL
or WINAPI wasn't declared.

extern __attribute__(( dllimport )) void Tcl_AppendResult(Tcl_Interp *
interp , ...);

translated to:

procedure Tcl_AppendResult(interp: pTcl_Interp; args: array of const);
cdecl; external TCL_LIBRARY;
