70b3831697 Adjust markup to worm around tool limitations; the "m" in "model" was being
dropped in the HTML formatted version.

e604875b81 Restore a minimal definition of execution frame, since other parts of
the manual refer to it.

XXX Not sure that it belongs in this section, or that the concept is
particularly important for writing documentation.  Perhaps references
to the frame should be removed entirely.

e7d5773ed0 Update docs for nested scopes.
Replace section 4.1 with section A.3.

The new section 4.1 is titled "Naming and binding."  It includes the
text of section A.3 augmented with some of the detailed text from the
old section 4.1.

The \dfn, \index stuff is probably wrong, but I tried.

Also update other parts of appendix A to mention that nested scopes
and generators are standard features.

e702481d38 Revert to ver 1.22, which was the version before the nested scopes
docs were introduced.  This loses a few small changes, but Fred says
that's okay.
