Ack - the code should be defined where it is used - don't make things
too complex.

libpayload will use cdecl, as should the other payloads.  This is a
legitimate restriction to put on the payloads, i think.

I'm slightly tired of the back and forth on this patch - so I'll give
the opponents a chance to discussion the technical merits of the patch,
otherwise I'm going to check it in and let cleanups happen as they may.
