I want to keep the tag-ids clean (no */ as part of the tag).

My tentative plan is to do as you've suggested, and use this format for
C code:

   /* arch-tag: ID-CONTENTS
      (don't change this comment) */

and then later when `arch-id:' is implemented, change to using:

   /* arch-id: "ID-CONTENTS" */

As long as you (Tom) are pretty sure the proposal for arch-id: will not
change in any way significant enough to screw up compatibility, this
seems like the most practical method.

_However_, if Richard objects to temporarily having the ugly multi-line
comments then I'm also willing to do the grunt work for a minimal
implementation of arch-id:, and use that instead.

Richard?

Thanks,

-Miles
