For some files that had the Doom Source license attached but saw heavy external contributions over the years I added a special note to license all original ZDoom code under BSD.
Some benchmarking shows that on SSE systems it only harms performance and compared to the intrinsics version the gains are too marginal for something this infrequently called.
Doing 100000 calls of DoBlending results in a 5 ms decrease of using assembly vs intrinsics on a 3.4 GHz Core i7, meaning that even on a computer that is 10x slower you can still do 1000 or so blends per frame without a speed hit.
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.
This cuts down on as much message noise as possible, outputs everything to a file specified as a parameter and then quits immediately, allowing this to run from a batch that's supposed to check a larger list of files for errors.
Multiple outputs get appended if the file already exists.
Zipdir is not doing byte swapping like it should. zdoom.ini is stored
in ~/Preferences, but all other file accesses are probably going to be
like Windows and look in the same directory as the executable.

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++).
