The BoostBook "functionname" element seems to have the same role as the

DocBook's <function> element refers to the name part of a function (within, e.g., a <funcdef>). We couldn't use the DocBook funcdef (none of the C-centric constructs seem to work well), so we invented our own.
Also, the documentation for the BoostBook "function" element shows an example with no instance of <function> in it! What's going on here?
Very poor documentation :) Functions look just like constructors, except that they have a return type and a name="..." attribute.
