Well, lessee here... Nope. 1989. Have there been any additional thoughts
on the '?' portions, such as in section 5.8? Also, I'm curious as to the
thinking behind the modification of the way in which modules are defined
(ie. the 'priority' identifier is apparently gone, and replaced with
'protection'). It's entirely possible that I'm stumbling while trying
to read through the mass of the spec, so any light you'd care to shed
would be appreciated.
