Sure, here's a first cut. Perhaps this sort of thing should be put
into a comment in lisp.h? Or into a new file under admin/notes?
If you number them (explicitly) and add a blurb requesting additions to
be done at the end, these can be referenced succinctly and stably in the
code. E.g.:
/* Although ITG (Integer Types Guidelines) 0 suggests otherwise,
foo values are known never to exceed 42. Plus, ITG 3 concurs. */
int foo = compute_foo ();
Just a thought... [Yeah, i fear Project Xanadu levels of internal
Qualitative Easing, too, but maybe Emacs can avoid that fate. :-D]
