Description elbacon 2011-10-26 17:06:17 UTC 
Manual section 12.21.2 documents Obstack streams.  However it seems this functionality was removed between 2.2.5 and 2.3.

Either the documentation should be cleaned up, or Obstack streams should be returned to the library.  Since 2.3 was released 2002-10-3, and nobody has complained about its absence, removing the relevant manual entry seems like the right thing.

I removed the section.
