4Source code rules of the road:
5
6- All externally-visible function names must start with "dvm" to avoid
7namespace clashes.  Use static functions when possible.
8
9- Do not create static variables (globally or locally).  Do not create
10global variables.  Keep everything with non-local lifespan in "gDvm",
11defined in Globals.h, so that all global VM state is in one place.
12
13- Use "startup" and "shutdown" functions to clean up gDvm.  The VM must
14exit cleanly in valgrind.
15
16- The primary target is ARM Linux.  Others are secondary, but must still
17work correctly.
18
19- Use of gcc-specific and C99 constructs is allowed.
