from the DisasContext.

disjoint fields.
 If ``!function`` is specified, the concatenated result is passed through the
 named function, taking and returning an integral value.
 
+One may use ``!function`` with zero ``unnamed_fields``.  This case is called
+a *parameter*, and the named function is only passed the ``DisasContext``
+and returns an integral value extracted from there.
+
+A field with no ``unnamed_fields`` and no ``!function`` is in error.

 FIXME: the fields of the structure into which this result will be stored
 is restricted to ``int``.  Which means that we cannot expand 64-bit items.
