The message about 'linepos' was a plain bug. Also, the second
constructor got wrong documentation (from the first one). Both
problems are now fixed.
Concerning special role of ')abbrev': basically '++' comments get
attached to object before them. Any non-comment thing stops
this attachement and then '++' comment can attach to following
object. Actually, only toplevel constructor documentation goes
before. But this explains why you need something to signal that
old constructor ends and the new begins...
