Then what does the following excerpt from latin-1lt.el mean?

    (quail-define-package
     "italian-alt-postfix" "Latin-1" "IT<" t
 
According to the doc string of quail-define-package,

    quail-define-package is an autoloaded Lisp function in `quail'.
    (quail-define-package name language title &optional guidance docstring
    translation-keys forget-last-selection deterministic kbd-translate
    show-layout create-decode-map maximum-shortest overlay-plist
    update-translation-function conversion-keys simple)

    Define NAME as a new Quail package for input LANGUAGE.
    TITLE is a string to be displayed at mode-line to indicate this package.
