+ The primitives that report a stretch or shrink order report a value in a
+ convenient range zero upto four. Because some macro packages can break on
+ that we also provide \type {\eTeXgluestretchorder} and \type
+ {\eTeXglueshrinkorder} which report values compatible with \ETEX. The (new)
+ \type {fi} value is reported as \type {-1} (so when used in an \type
+ {\ifcase} test that value makes one end up in the \type {\else}).
