Yes, there is an annex M. No, it does not contain that information. It has
entries for the predefined integer types declared in Standard (13), and the
predefined floating-point types declared in Standard (17), but none for the
predefined fixed-point types declared in Standard. As far as I can tell from
the LRM's annex M, there are *no* documentation requirements for Duration.
I'd be happy to be proven wrong (cuz then I could go bitch at my vendor).
