The topic 'Using non-Memory objects' is missing from section 8.44 because the heading in std/machine.e starts with three dashes in front of the four asterisks instead of two dashes. The topic should be between 'Using Pointer Arrays' (8.44.3.9) and 'Memory Allocation' (8.44.4)
If it is to remain undocumented please mark this ticket 'Invalid' or even delete it.
This was found accidentally while looking into eudoc/creole for entirely different reasons.
