There was a problem hiding this comment.
This appears to add normative redundancy.
Can you just do
[ Note: See the macro CHAR_BIT in the header climits. -- end note ]
which has all the same advantages for indexing, but keeps the statement non-normative.
The footnote on `CHAR_BIT` is information relevant to the main text of the corresponding paragraph, where it can usefully be indexed.
