Quick comments on tuples

This is from just a quick glance at the Tuples library under review.

1.  The header files have the authors' e-mail addresses as well as their
names.  Maybe the e-mails should be left out, so we don't have to change the
headers in cases the e-mails change.  The authors should eventually be
listed in the People section of the documentation, and they could put their
e-mail addresses there.

2.  There's a type called "nil" for a placeholder for unused positions.
This is confusing from the usage as a NULL pointer that the last reviewed
library had.  The name should be more descriptive.  Worse, the name "nil" is
a macro constant in at least one OS-provider's system headers.
