I agree with your analysis that they are not relevant to the Checker
Framework; thanks for pointing that out.

I believe that they are still to-do items for the JSR 308 compiler
implementation, so that the annotations appear in the class file.  Is that
correct?

                     Thanks,

                    -Mike
