+  are implemented by duplicating the three pool types.  Pool resets are requested
   against the nontainted sibling and apply to both siblings.
+
+  Only memory blocks requested for tainted use are regarded as tainted; anything
+  else (including stack auto variables) is untainted.  Care is needed when coding
+  to not copy untrusted data into untainted memory, as downstream taint-checks
+  would be avoided.
+
+  Internally we currently use malloc for nontainted pools, and mmap for tainted
+  pools.  The disparity is for speed of testing the taintedness of pointers;
+  because Linux appears to use distinct non-overlapping address allocations for
+  mmap vs. everything else, which means only two pointer-compares suffice for the
+  test.  Other OS' cannot use that optimisation, and a more lengthy test against
+  the limits of tainted-pool allcations has to be done.
+
+  Intermediate layers (eg. the string functions) can test for taint, and use this
+  for ensurinng that results have proper state.  For example the
+  string_vformat_trc() routing supporting the string_sprintf() interface will
+  recopy a string being built into a tainted allocation if it meets a %s for a
+  tainted argument.  Any intermediate-layer function that (can) return a new
+  allocation should behave this way; returning a tainted result if any tainted
+  content is used.  Intermediate-layer functions (eg. Ustrncpy) that modify
+  existing allocations fail if tainted data is written into an untainted area.
+  Users of functions that modify existing allocations should check if a tainted
+  source and an untainted destination is used, and fail instead (sprintf() being
+  the classic case).
