+don't break with old compilers and -DGNU_EFI_USE_MS_ABI
+It's entirely legitimate to request GNU_EFI_USE_MS_ABI even if the current
+compiler doesn't support it, and gnu-efi should transparently fall back to
+using legacy techniques to set the calling convention.  We don't get type
+checking, but at least it will still compile.
