Looks good, aside from the few FIXMEs, TODOs and XXXs and DIRTYs.

I think we need to come up with a better word for "unsrfify". That's
quite a mouthful. Perhaps something as boring as
"convert_srfs_to_function_rtes".

Would it make sense for addRangeTableEntryForFunction() to take a List
of RangeFunctionElems as argument, now that we have such a struct? The
lists-of-same-length approach gets a bit tedious.

Typos:
s/fortfour/forfour
s/Each element of this list a/ Each element of this list is a/
