[CF-Devel] Little confused on arch.c:first_arch_pass()

[Bob Tanner]

First, I'd like to make a suggestion. If a function has the side effect of
loading/altering/etc a static data struct it should be documented in that
function somewhere.

I believe a case in point is arch.c:first_arch_pass(). The comments says:

/*
 * Reads/parses the archetype-file, and copies into a linked list
 * of archetype-structures.
 */

Yet the prototype is void, so it looks like it must load the archtype linked
list into a static variable somewhere.

Once first_arch_pass() is called, what is the name of the linked list it
creates?
