+/* Macro for defining "auto-load" functions.
+ * Note that this is self-modifying code *gasp*.
+ * The first invocation of a routine will trigger the loading of
+ * the DLL.  This will then be followed by the discovery of
+ * the procedure's entry point, which is placed into the location
+ * pointed to by the stack pointer.  This code then changes
+ * the "call" operand which invoked it to a "jmp" which will
+ * transfer directly to the DLL function on the next invocation.
+ *
+ * Subsequent calls to routines whose transfer address has not been
+ * determined will skip the "load the dll" step, starting at the
+ * "discovery of the DLL" step.
+ *
+ * So, immediately following the the call to one of the above routines
+ * we have:
+ *  foojmp (4 bytes) 	 Pointer to a word containing the routine used
+ *			 to eventually invokethe function.  Initially
+ *			 points to an init function which loads the
+ *			 DLL, gets the processes load address,
+ *			 changes the contents here to point to the
+ *			 function address, and changes the call *(%eax)
+ *			 to a jmp %eax.  If the initialization has been
+ *			 done, only the load part is done.
+ *  DLL handle (4 bytes) The handle to use when loading the DLL.
+ *  func name (n bytes)	 asciz string containing the name of the function
+ *			 to be loaded.
