I meant that if you say
-module(glurk).
-record(xxx, {a,b,c,...})
-record(yyy, {p,q,r,...})
In a module or include file - then when you compile the file, you'll add
information about the record to module_info.
So
glurk:module_info() might contain tuples like this:
{record, xxx, [a,b,c...]},
{record, yyy, [p,q,r]}
which are frozen into the beam code
