   + Notification implementation complete
   + Add for loop code optimization using notifications
     results in 1.5-1.9% speed improvement in nestloop benchmark

  Revision 1.65  2002/09/09 17:34:16  peter
    * tdicationary.replace added to replace and item in a dictionary. This

    * varsyms are inserted in symtable before the types are parsed. This
      fixes the long standing "var longint : longint" bug
    - consume_idlist and idstringlist removed. The loops are inserted
      at the callers place and uses the symtable for duplicate id checking

  Revision 1.64  2002/09/08 11:10:17  carl
    * bugfix 2109 (bad imho, but only way)

    * Make Tprocdef.defs protected

  Revision 1.58  2002/09/01 08:01:16  daniel
   * Removed sets from Tcallnode.det_resulttype
   + Added read/write notifications of variables. These will be usefull
     for providing information for several optimizations. For example
     the value of the loop variable of a for loop does matter is the
     variable is read after the for loop, but if it's no longer used
     or written, it doesn't matter and this can be used to optimize
     the loop code generation.

  Revision 1.57  2002/08/25 19:25:21  peter
    * sym.insert_in_data removed
    * symtable.insertvardata/insertconstdata added
    * removed insert_in_data call from symtable.insert, it needs to be
      called separatly. This allows to deref the address calculation
    * procedures now calculate the parast addresses after the procedure
      directives are parsed. This fixes the cdecl parast problem
    * push_addr_param has an extra argument that specifies if cdecl is used
      or not

  Revision 1.56  2002/08/25 09:06:21  peter

  Revision 1.55  2002/08/20 16:54:40  peter
    * write address of varsym always

  Revision 1.54  2002/08/20 10:31:26  daniel
   * Tcallnode.det_resulttype rewritten

  Revision 1.53  2002/08/18 20:06:27  peter
    * inlining is now also allowed in interface
    * renamed write/load to ppuwrite/ppuload
    * tnode storing in ppu
    * nld,ncon,nbas are already updated for storing in ppu

  Revision 1.52  2002/08/17 09:23:42  florian
    * first part of procinfo rewrite

  Revision 1.51  2002/08/16 14:24:59  carl
    * issameref() to test if two references are the same (then emit no opcodes)
    + ret_in_reg to replace ret_in_acc
      (fix some register allocation bugs at the same time)
    + save_std_register now has an extra parameter which is the
      usedinproc registers

  Revision 1.50  2002/08/13 21:40:57  florian
    * more fixes for ppc calling conventions

  Revision 1.49  2002/08/12 15:08:40  carl
    + stab register indexes for powerpc (moved from gdb to cpubase)
    + tprocessor enumeration moved to cpuinfo
    + linker in target_info is now a class
    * many many updates for m68k (will soon start to compile)
    - removed some ifdef or correct them for correct cpu

  Revision 1.48  2002/08/11 14:32:28  peter
    * renamed current_library to objectlibrary

  Revision 1.47  2002/08/11 13:24:14  peter
    * saving of asmsymbols in ppu supported
    * asmsymbollist global is removed and moved into a new class
      tasmlibrarydata that will hold the info of a .a file which
      corresponds with a single module. Added librarydata to tmodule
      to keep the library info stored for the module. In the future the
      objectfiles will also be stored to the tasmlibrarydata class
    * all getlabel/newasmsymbol and friends are moved to the new class

  Revision 1.46  2002/07/23 10:13:23  daniel
  * Added important comment

  Revision 1.45  2002/07/23 09:51:26  daniel
  * Tried to make Tprocsym.defs protected. I didn't succeed but the cleanups
    are worth comitting.

  Revision 1.44  2002/07/20 17:45:29  daniel
  * Register variables are now possible for global variables too. This is
    important for small programs without procedures.

  Revision 1.43  2002/07/20 11:57:58  florian
    * types.pas renamed to defbase.pas because D6 contains a types
      unit so this would conflicts if D6 programms are compiled
    + Willamette/SSE2 instructions to assembler added

  Revision 1.42  2002/07/11 14:41:31  florian
    * start of the new generic parameter handling
