[PATCH] remove some old code from ansidecl.h


ansidecl.h still defines a number of macros which I think are now
obsolete.  I recently removed all uses of these macros from
binutils-gdb.git; and there are no more uses in gcc.  So, I'd like to
propose removing the old macros entirely.

This patch removes the last uses of PARAMS from include, and the last
uses of the obsolete VA_* wrapper macros from libiberty.  Then, it
removes many obsolete macro definitions from ansidecl.h.

I tested this by rebuilding gcc and binutils-gdb with the patch.

Note that even if I missed a use of one of the macros, the
consequences are small, as the fix is always trivial.

2014-01-13  Tom Tromey  <tromey@redhat.com>

	* ansidecl.h (ANSI_PROTOTYPES, PTRCONST, LONG_DOUBLE, PARAMS)
	(VPARAMS, VA_START, VA_OPEN, VA_CLOSE, VA_FIXEDARG, CONST)
	(VOLATILE, SIGNED, PROTO, EXFUN, DEFUN, DEFUN_VOID, AND, DOTS)
	(NOARGS): Don't define.
	* libiberty.h (expandargv, writeargv): Don't use PARAMS.

2014-01-13  Tom Tromey  <tromey@redhat.com>

	* _doprint.c (checkit): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.
	* asprintf.c (asprintf): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.
	* concat.c (concat_length, concat_copy, concat_copy2, concat)
	(reconcat): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.
	* snprintf.c (snprintf): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.
	* vasprintf.c (checkit): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.
	* vsnprintf.c (checkit): Use stdarg, not VA_* macros.

-
-   Note that it is safe to write "void foo();" indicating a function
-   with no return value, in all K+R compilers we have been able to test.
-
-   For declaring functions with prototypes, we also provide these:
-
-   PARAMS ((prototype))
-   -- for functions which take a fixed number of arguments.  Use this
-   when declaring the function.  When defining the function, write a
-   K+R style argument list.  For example:
-
-	char *strcpy PARAMS ((char *dest, char *source));
-	...
-	char *
-	strcpy (dest, source)
-	     char *dest;
-	     char *source;
-	{ ... }
-
-
-   VPARAMS ((prototype, ...))
-   -- for functions which take a variable number of arguments.  Use
-   PARAMS to declare the function, VPARAMS to define it.  For example:
-
-	int printf PARAMS ((const char *format, ...));
-	...
-	int
-	printf VPARAMS ((const char *format, ...))
-	{
-	   ...
-	}
-
-   For writing functions which take variable numbers of arguments, we
-   also provide the VA_OPEN, VA_CLOSE, and VA_FIXEDARG macros.  These
-   hide the differences between K+R <varargs.h> and C89 <stdarg.h> more
-   thoroughly than the simple VA_START() macro mentioned above.
-
-   VA_OPEN and VA_CLOSE are used *instead of* va_start and va_end.
-   Immediately after VA_OPEN, put a sequence of VA_FIXEDARG calls
-   corresponding to the list of fixed arguments.  Then use va_arg
-   normally to get the variable arguments, or pass your va_list object
-   around.  You do not declare the va_list yourself; VA_OPEN does it
-   for you.
-
-   Here is a complete example:
-
-	int
-	printf VPARAMS ((const char *format, ...))
-	{
-	   int result;
-
-	   VA_OPEN (ap, format);
-	   VA_FIXEDARG (ap, const char *, format);
-
-	   result = vfprintf (stdout, format, ap);
-	   VA_CLOSE (ap);
-
-	   return result;
-	}
-
-
-   You can declare variables either before or after the VA_OPEN,
-   VA_FIXEDARG sequence.  Also, VA_OPEN and VA_CLOSE are the beginning
-   and end of a block.  They must appear at the same nesting level,
-   and any variables declared after VA_OPEN go out of scope at
-   VA_CLOSE.  Unfortunately, with a K+R compiler, that includes the
-   argument list.  You can have multiple instances of VA_OPEN/VA_CLOSE
-   pairs in a single function in case you need to traverse the
-   argument list more than once.
 
    For ease of writing code which uses GCC extensions but needs to be
    portable to other compilers, we provide the GCC_VERSION macro that
    simplifies testing __GNUC__ and __GNUC_MINOR__ together, and various
    wrappers around __attribute__.  Also, __extension__ will be #defined
-   to nothing if it doesn't work.  See below.
-
-   This header also defines a lot of obsolete macros:
-   CONST, VOLATILE, SIGNED, PROTO, EXFUN, DEFUN, DEFUN_VOID,
-   AND, DOTS, NOARGS.  Don't use them.  */
