I changed it from "standard" to "specification" because it's neither a
"standard" in RFC or ISO sense, nor is it software.  It's ttl files that
outline feature.  These specifications can be turned into code or
workable data; they serve as an interface declaration, so I think
"specification" is really the most appropriate term here.

Attached is the new patch.
