+	* display.texi, eval.texi, help.texi, internals.texi, loading.texi:
+	* nonascii.texi, processes.texi, tips.texi, variables.texi:
+	Add or change various xrefs and anchors.
+
+	* commands.texi: Replace all occurrences of @acronym{CAR} with
+	@sc{car}, for consistency with the rest of the Elisp manual.
+	`car' and `cdr' are historically acronyms, but are no longer
+	widely thought of as such.
+
+	* internals.texi (Pure Storage): Mention that `purecopy' does not
+	copy text properties.
+	(Object Internals): Now 29 bits are used (in most implementations)
+	to address Lisp objects.
+
+	* variables.texi (Variables with Restricted Values): New node.
+
+	* objects.texi (Lisp Data Types): Mention that certain variables
+	can only take on a restricted set of values and add an xref to
+	the new node "Variables with Restricted Values".
+
+	* eval.texi (Function Indirection): Describe the errors that
+	`indirect-function' can signal.
+	(Eval): Clarify the descriptions of `eval-region' and `values'.
+	Describe `eval-buffer' instead of `eval-current-buffer' and
+	mention `eval-current-buffer' as an alias for `current-buffer'.
+	Correct the description and mention all optional arguments.
+
+	* nonascii.texi : Various small changes in addition to the
+	following.
+	(Converting Representations): Clarify behavior of
+	`string-make-multibyte' and `string-to-multibyte' for unibyte all
+	ASCII arguments.
+	(Character Sets): Document the variable `charset-list' and adapt
+	the definition of the function `charset-list' accordingly.
+	(Translation of Characters): Clarify use of generic characters in
+	`make-translation-table'.  Clarify and correct the description of
+	the use of translation tables in encoding and decoding.
+	(User-Chosen Coding Systems): Correct and clarify the description
+	of `select-safe-coding-system'.
+	(Default Coding Systems): Clarify description of
+	`file-coding-system-alist'.
