Thanks.  This is approved, except for the following minor problems:

In an @itemize list, the @item needs to be alone on its line, like
this:

  @item
  The size parameter to @code{xmalloc}, @code{xcalloc}, and
  @code{xrealloc} may be 0.

(It's true that `makeinfo' groks both formats, but that requires an
extra-special kludge in `makeinfo', which may one day be removed, and
it produces ugly results in HTML and DVI.)

Only in a @table you write the item's name immediately after @item.

This should be @samp, not @code, since it's not a name of a symbol,
it's a code snippet.

                                                  ^^^^^
And here.
