It's fair, but misleading about my position, for no fault of yours.
I apologise for not responding - I was just too tied up with other
work and the real issues I want to raise need some very hard thinking
and I have just not had the time.

The main one is 10-235r1, which I do NOT feel has been properly
considered, and is as problematic as the TYPE(*) issue and even more
pervasive.  Unfortunately, explaining why (beyond what is in 10-235r1,
which clearly wasn't adequate) is non-trivial.

I also have drafted a specific example of why the specification of
CFI_cdesc_to_bounds cannot work.  We discussed that in one meeting, and
the problem is still unresolved.


Regards,
Nick.
