Good idea, first thing i would like to know what exactly "PBC access 
sets", "family of classes" and a few other things are :-) 

More seriously, i think that the increasing size of PyPy's 
documentation makes it more difficult to choose the right 
link targets. So i am not sure we should intend to link to 
the glossary unless the glossary itself back-points 
to relevant sections. 

cheers,
