    Would it be appropriate to provide a second reference to clear up this
    confusion? If sufficient notation would make CLtL impenetrable for the
    average reader, could not a reference with sufficient notation be made
    availble for those with the desire to wade through it?

The construction of an accurate if impenetrable reference for CLtL is
merely "a small matter of writing".  Sounds like a job for ANSI X3J13.
Any volunteers?  The first meeting, as has already been announced on this
mailing list, is in Washington D.C. on September 23-24.  Be there or
be square.
