[Oberon] Portability.

Many of the modules in S3 and A2 had the comment (** portable *) 
following the module name.  The comment has been removed from some 
more recent sources. Examples:
Out in S3
Out in LinuxA2 Generic, rev.8586  /usr/aos/source/Out.Mod
https://trac.inf.ethz.ch/trac/lecturers/a2/browser/trunk/source/Oberon.Out.Mod  (rev.8667)

Portability is discussed in 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_portability .

Should "(** portable *)" still appear in an Oberon source?  Too 
ambiguous to be helpful?

Thanks,                              ... Lyall E.
