The text needs an update too. It talks about each argument but not the new one. Also, " and the last argument is the line number." is now clearly wrong.

This is not clear from the description.
I'm not trying to be difficult, but I genuinely still don't understand the additional arguments pointer. Is it intended to allow proprietary extensions? Is there an example somewhere?
If these intrinsics are meant as a general mechanism to enable arbitrary communication between custom front ends and custom optimization passes, that's fine. I'd just like to see something explicitly explaining that.
