The section "Pointer Bounds Checker builtins" in extend.texi is on my
list for being in need of copy-editing, but reading through the existing
text, I am quite confused. In several places it refers to turning the
Pointer Bounds Checker off, but how do you do that? I don't see any
documented command-line option.
It looks like the commit that added this feature (r217125) included a
lot of x86-specific stuff. Is this whole feature specific to x86? If
so, the documentation ought to say that. What is the relation of this
feature to the -mmpx x86 option, which was added in the same commit?
That option does have documentation in invoke.texi but nothing that
suggests it's related to Pointer Bounds Checking.
