+;/** @file
+;  Macros to centralize the EXPORT, AREA, and definition of an assembly
+;  function.  The AREA prefix is required to put the function in its own
+;  section so that removal of unused functions in the final link is performed.
+;  This provides  equivalent functionality to the compiler's --split-sections
+;  option.
