AFAIK, there is no documentation, per se, on this flag.  Your best bet at this 
point is to use, in sage, the "search_src()" function to track down where in 
the source it is defined and used.

As I recently learned (see 
<http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/a9d048ee90c36c23/3e9d71c7f37ff7db?lnk=gst&q=immutable#3e9d71c7f37ff7db>
) immutability is, essentially, a convention.  In instances where the data is 
actually created in C/C++ code, this can be enforced *in Python* (because 
Python code can only get at the data indirectly).

You might also search the archives for more discussion, both in sage-devel and 
sage-support.
