http://csserver.evansville.edu/~sc87/cffi/cffi-sys-spec.texinfo.1s11.patch is the patch, also attached.
http://csserver.evansville.edu/~sc87/cffi/ChangeLog.cffi-sys-spec.texinfo.1s... is a changelog, formatted as ChangeLog-luis is in the tarballs directory. Its contents also follow.
Please let me know if there is a better/preferred way to do this, particularly as I am unfamiliar with darcs.
Mon Dec 19 13:34:00 CST 2005 Stephen Compall s11@member.fsf.org * CFFI-SYS-SPEC manual updates & Texinfo idioms
- Use @var for arguments, rather than @code. - Use @deftpx for a chain of type defns, rather than repeated @deftp blocks. - Use @result{} instead of explicit =>. - Use @r with appropriate formatting for comments in @examples/@lisps. - Introduction: Convert naming convention to a list of general conventions, and define "foreign type". - Rename the pointer functions. - Document new functions. - Use new @impnote macro to add notes, so they can be conditionally removed from the manual.

Great, this was my first time using Texinfo and I certainly missed a couple of idioms. Thanks!
I didn't change the formatting of the comments in the examples since that didn't come out right in the HTML output, possibly because of the colorize script.

I'm also a darcs newbie myself as this was my first project using it. I think sending a normal patch is just fine but darcs also has its own patch format which among other stuff will contain the changelog message itself. I suppose it would go something like this:
(make changes) darcs record darcs send -uo some.darcs.patch
Publishing your tree somewhere where we could "darcs pull" the patch would also work well.
Anyway, thanks for your patch!
