 if you have a hook that takes arguments or otherwise departs from
 being a "normal hook", FSF says you should call it -functions, not
 -hook. unfortunately, many existing FSF hooks don't follow this [e.g. 
 they use -hooks instead]. furthermore, xemacs convention in this
 regard is just -hook.

 if i'm creating new such hooks, what do people think i should use? 
As an end-user of the Lisp, '-functions' makes sense to me. They are
different from '-hook' things, and I like that to be obvious.
