+ * Attribute mapping structure
+ *
+ * This maps attribute numbers between a pair of relations, designated
+ * 'input' and 'output' (most typically inheritance parent and child
+ * relations), whose common columns may have different attribute numbers.
+ * Such difference may arise due to the columns being ordered differently
+ * in the two relations or the two relations having dropped columns at
+ * different positions.
+ *
+ * 'maplen' is set to the number of attributes of the 'output' relation,
+ * taking into account any of its dropped attributes, with the corresponding
+ * elements of the 'attnums' array set to 0.
