This looks good in general, thanks.
Instead of the change around pollution I would prefer
"Avoid polluting the global namespace and do not include..."
instead of either the old or the proposed version, though I'll admit
I do not have a strong rationale.
I am not sure about "The powerpc" vs "The PowerPC" vs "powerpc",
please pass that part by David Edelsohn.
Similarly, are you sure "<code>#pragma GCC target attribute</code>"
change is incorrect. Isn't that a function attribute?
