There should be a ":" after the file name in the log message.
The log message should be in grammatical English: sentences
start with capital letters and end with periods.

This should go in extras/quickcheck/qcheck.m, IMHO.

Also you should mention it in extras/README.
And there should be a line for it in the RELEASE_NOTES file.

You should list yourself in compiler/notes/authors.html.

Comments should be in grammatical English (see above).

The documentation at the top of this module should give a pointer
to the tutorial.

[I haven't reviewed the code.]
