Uhm... sorry but is it possible that you didn't read the texinfo file
created by my patch send the week before but instead the one from
December?  I just looked through the doc and I was a bit surprised
to see that there isn't any reference to B.1 but instead there's
already a "(see @ref{Integral datatypes}, for details)" in it.

I've attached the new version of my patch with the following changes:

- Using M packets for memory transfer is redefined so that the target
  should expect M or X packets.  The current implementation (my patch)
  uses only X packets so far.  I forgot that in the original document.

- The "Integral datatypes" chapter contains a hint that these datatypes
  are passed as big endian when part of a memory transfer of a compound
  type.

- The "Integral datatypes" chapter defines time_t as seconds since Epoch.

- A new "File-I/O Examples" chapter.


Please review if that's ok now,
Corinna
