Yes and no.  cdecl, fastcall, stdcall, etc. are x86 specific (not just 
Win32), but many platforms still have multiple calling conventions 
(e.g. MacOS on the 68K had at least three if I remember: pascal, OS, 
and something else).  So you still need to be able to explicitly 
specify calling conventions somehow in a vaguely cross-platform 
manner.
