+*** New 'type' function declaration.
+The declaration '(type TYPE)' specifies the type of a function.

+may lead to Emacs crashing.  See the Info node "(elisp) Declare Form"
+for further information.

-** New function declaration and property 'important-return-value'.
+*** New 'important-return-value' function declaration and property.
 The declaration '(important-return-value t)' sets the
 'important-return-value' property which indicates that the function
 return value should probably not be thrown away implicitly.
