+ * Relative pointers are intended to be used when storing an address that may
+ * be relative either to the base of the process's address space or some
+ * dynamic shared memory segment mapped therein.
+ *
+ * The idea here is that you declare a relative pointer as relptr(type)
+ * and then use relptr_access to dereference it and relptr_store to change
+ * it. The use of a union here is a hack, because what's stored in the
+ * relptr is always a Size, never an actual pointer. But including a pointer
+ * in the union allows us to use stupid macro tricks to provide some measure
+ * of type-safety.
