Not that I can see -- the "described below" I mentioned also refers
to the non-augmented versions.  Maybe, if 3.3.6 is now complete, it
might suffice to change 'described below' to 'described in <link to
3.3.6>', as 3.3.4 already mentions "addition (meaning concatenation)
and multiplication (meaning repetition)".

Does the C API manual also now mention the augmented operations...?
