See compare_overlays in buffer.c.
The ELisp manual is not supposed to be a comprehensive documentation
of the Emacs internals, it's supposed to provide information for users
who write Lisp programs. People who develop Emacs itself will need to
read the sources anyway. So it's not a big deal if some obscure
feature is not described in the manual, it just means it is not
supposed to be used by Lisp programs that are not part of Emacs.
