This can easely be changed in checkSClass() ( that soon will be merged with
checkType(), checkFunction() and checkTypeSanity() ) but I am not sure about
the difference between _idata data _near and xdata _xdata etc. I think this
is just a matter of the parser e.g., xdata should be placed before the type
while _xdata should be placed after the type.

We should clearly state the rules here, so obsoletes can be removed (and
documentation can be updated :).

Sandeep?
