The comments in this area are confusing me, FWIW:
```
/// Stores the TagDecl associated with this type. The decl may point to any
/// TagDecl that declares the entity.
TagDecl *decl;
...
TagDecl *getOriginalDecl() const { return decl; }
```
The function is called "get original decl" which implies you get the first
declaration seen in the TU, but the data member it returns has a comment saying
it may point to any declaration in the redeclaration chain. One of these is
wrong, correct?
