I have a trivial tool that gropes the sources of individual Postfix
programs, however a non-trivial number of parameters is loaded
implicitly by library routines.  Accurately determining these
dependencies is non-trivial, because not every program uses every
library routine. 

And once parameters are read in one place, even these tricks will
no longer work.

In addition, the mapping is not fixed; parameters have moved from
one program to another (e.b. always_bcc). I want to keep the
documentation meaningful for several Postfix versions.
