[Bug fortran/34112] New: Add $!DEC ATTRIBUTE support for 32bit Windows' STDCALL

[burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org]

32bit Windows uses a different calling convention (called procedure pops the
stack, not caller) with a symbol name _<name>@n, where n is the number of bytes
to pop off.

As the standard makes not provisions and !DEC$ (*DEC$, cDEC$) is widely used,
gfortran should accept the following:

  function CallWndRetProc(nCode, wParam, lParam)
  !DEC$ ATTRIBUTES STDCALL,DECORATE, ALIAS: 'CallWndRetProc' :: CallWndRetProc 
  end function

They seem to map to
(http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Function-Attributes.html):

STDCALL  ->  __attribute__(stdcall)
ALIAS    ->  __attribute__(alias("name"))
DECORATE -> ?

The problem with decorate is that its meaning depends on the platform. It may
decorate the "name" of alias with a "_" prefix and "@n" postfix or only with a
"_" prefix. Maybe one should start with STDCALL and ALIAS.

For alias one should do something as in c-pragma.c's apply_pragma_weak:

decl_attributes (&decl, build_tree_list (get_identifier ("alias"),
                                         build_tree_list (NULL, value)),
                 0);
