The only reason this even existed was that ZDoom's original VC projects used __fastcall. The CMake generated project do not, they stick to __cdecl.
Since no performance gain can be seen by using __fastcall the best course of action is to just remove all traces of it from the source and forget that it ever existed.
issues that caused its inclusion. Is an optimized GCC build any faster
for being able to use strict aliasing rules? I dunno. It's still slower
than a VC++ build.
I did run into two cases where TAutoSegIterator caused intractable problems
with breaking strict aliasing rules, so I removed the templating from it,
and the caller is now responsible for casting the probe value from void *.
- Removed #include "autosegs.h" from several files that did not need it
(in particular, dobject.h when not compiling with VC++).

- Joystick devices now send key up events for any buttons that are held
down when they are destroyed.
- Changed the joystick enable-y menu items to be nonrepeatable so that you
can't create several device scans per second. Changing them with a
controller is also disabled so that you can't, for example, toggle XInput
support using an XInput controller and have things go haywire when the
game receives an infinite number of key down events when the controller
is reinitialized with the other input system.
- Changed menu input to use a consolidated set of buttons, so most menus
can be navigated with a controller as well as a keyboard.
- Changed the way that X/Y analog axes are converted to digital axes.
Previously, this was done by checking if each axis was outside its deadzone.
Now they are checked together based on their angle, so straight up/down/
left/right are much easier to achieve.

methods. Analog axes now respond Button_Speed and cl_run in exactly the
same way as digital buttons do.
- Changed rounding slightly for analog axis -> integer in G_BuildTiccmd().
- Fixed: FXInputController::ProcessThumbstick() was slightly off when it
converted to the range [-1.0,+1.0].

and a list of all attached controllers, and a second level for configuring
an individual controller.
- Fixed: Pressing Up at the top of a menu with more lines than fit on screen
would find an incorrect bottom position if the menu had a custom top height.
- Added the cvars joy_dinput, joy_ps2raw, and joy_xinput to enable/disable
specific game controller input systems independant of each other.
- Device change broadcasts are now sent to the Doom event queue, so
device scanning can be handled in one common place.
- Added a fast version of IsXInputDevice that uses the Raw Input device
list, because querying WMI for this information is painfully slow.
- Added support for compiling with FMOD Ex 4.26+ and running the game
with an older DLL. This combination will now produce sound.

- Added XInput support. For the benefit of people compiling with MinGW,
the CMakeLists.txt checks for xinput.h and disables it if it cannot
be found. (And much to my surprise, I accidentally discovered that if you
have the DirectX SDK installed, those headers actually do work with GCC,
though they add a few extra warnings.)

and loading, XInput, allow axes to be used as buttons (for the Xbox
controller's trigger buttons), allow the joystick to move through the
menus, and my PS2 adapter which has no Vista x64 drivers.
* I'm sure SDL is broken again. Don't bother reporting it, because I already know.

took far too long to reach this point.) Manual axis configuration is
currently disabled, since I need to rewrite that, too. The eventual point of
this is that the code will be modular enough that I can just plop in
routines for XInput controllers and driver-less PlayStation 2 adapters
without much fuss, since the old joystick code was very much DirectInput-
centric.
