<p>At the moment, it is not technically guaranteed that <code>f32</code>/<code>float</code> is actually 32-bit and that <code>f64</code> is actually 64-bit; they are platform dependent. Perhaps someday there will be a version of toc which does not compile to C, where that could be guaranteed.</p>

-<p>Here, "constant" means constant at compile time, not read-only as it does in C.
