 Specifically, the affix flags can be used for:

+- Suffixes on suffixes, as in the example above.  This works once, thus you

 - Making the word with the affix rare, by using the |spell-RARE| flag.
 - Exclude the word with the affix from compounding, by using the

 - Allow the word with the affix to be part of a compound word on the side of
   the affix with the |spell-COMPOUNDPERMITFLAG|.
