I think an appendix to the reference manual might be a good place for 
it.  I usually use the online version of the reference manual, and 
don't consider the web too "far away".
On a tangent, some languages have a "IEEE annex" which explains how 
IEEE arithmetic is mapped into the language.  It might be useful for 
Lua to have one.  Is there any interest in me writing one?
