 This is also not in the Declarations document: the type declaration
 {{{(procedure irregex-match-valid-index? ((struct regexp-match) *)
 boolean)}}} does not match the production {{{(procedure (VAL1 ...
 [#!optional VALOPT1 ...] [#!rest [VAL]]) . RESULTS)}}}

 The name is optional (forgot to document this, will now) and is required
 to get at the procedure name even if the type propagated through various
 expressions in the flow-analysis done by "-scrutiny".
