+%% As of OTP 19.0 'undefined' is no longer added to fields with a type
+%% declaration but without an initializer. The pretty printing of
+%% records (erl_types:t_to_string()) is updated to reflect this: if a
+%% field is of type 'undefined', it is output if 'undefined' is not in
+%% the declared type of the field. (It used to be the case that the
+%% singleton type 'undefined' was never output.)
+%%
+%% One consequence is shown by the example below: the warning about
+%% the record construction violating the the declared type shows
+%% #r{..., d::'undefined', ...} which is meant to be of help to the
+%% user, who could otherwise get confused the first time (s)he gets
+%% confronted by the warning.
