[m-rev.] for tryout and review: don't include some unneeded items in .int3 files

Julien, Peter, I would like to ask you both to try out the attached diff
on the Mercury programs you work with, and report whether a compiler
that has this diff can compiler those programs without problems.
If there are no problems with any of your programs, *then* I would ask
for a review.

This is the first installment of stage 2 in the plan I posted a while ago
to fix our system of interface files. I have a bunch more similar
changes in mind, for which I would make the same request of you both.
I could either let each logical change stand on its own a diff, or I could
create batches of changes. The former would require you guys to try out
more compiler versions, while the latter requires more detective work
for me in the event of a failure (to figure out which *part* of the batch
failed). The latter would also require more compiler tryouts to confirm
the validity of any fixes for the failures.

I am leaning towards grouping 3 or 4 changes into batches.
Does anyone have another preference?

Zoltan.
