+=head2 The TYPEMAP: Keyword
+
+Starting with Perl 5.16, you can embed typemaps into your XS code
+instead of or in addition to typemaps in a separate file.  Multiple
+such embedded typemaps will be processed in order of appearance in
+the XS code and like local typemap files take precendence over the
+default typemap, the embedded typemaps may overwrite previous
+definitions of TYPEMAP, INPUT, and OUTPUT stanzas.  The syntax for
+embedded typemaps is
+
+      TYPEMAP: <<HERE
