I was under the impression the comment *had* been committed... It
would seem I was wrong.
Most of the thread was spent on discussing whether ports was the
appropriate place for the documentation or not, and where it should
be mentioned if not in ports.
You know how people can get sidetracked easily. :-) For that matter,
if chapter.sgml still has a log of why the version changed, then I
think it would be a good thing to insert the above comment in
param.h. I don't recall seeing any objections, though I can imagine
some people might think it's not appropriate for the source to refer
to an outside documentation such as the handbook.
