for C++ support.  These will go back in when they've been
examined.

-C++ allows a type to be defined nested "inside" a class.
-Such types follow the same naming rule as class members:
-The name of a nested type is only visible inside the class,
-or when qualified using @code{::} notation.  In that respect,
-a nested type "member" is rather like a static member.
-In fact, the stabs syntax used for nested types is similar to
-that used for static members.

-The first line declares type 20 to be an enum.  It gives it the
-name @code{ios::io_state}.  The name is suppressed because @code{io_state}
-is not a globally visible name.)
-
-The second line defines the @code{ios} type.
-The text @code{io_state:/220:!'ios::io_state';} declares that
-@code{io_state} is a type "member".  The @code{/2} specifies
-public visibility, just like a regular member.
-This is followed by the type being defined (type 20), the
-magic characters @code{:!} to indicate that we're declaring a nested
-type, followed by the complete name of the type.
-Single quotes surrond the name, because of the embedded @code{::}.
-
-Teh debugger uses the name @code{ios::io_state} to back-patch the name
-of type 20.
