\startnewprimitive[title={\prm {orphanpenalties}}]

This an (single entry) array parameter: first the size is given followed 
by that amount of penalties. These penalties are injected before spaces, 
going backward from the end of a paragraph. When we see a math node with 
a penalty set then we take the max and jump over a (preceding) skip.

\stopnewprimitive

\startnewprimitive[title={\prm {orphanpenalty}}]

This penalty is inserted before the last space in a paragraph, unless 
\prm {orphanpenalties} mandates otherwise.

\stopnewprimitive

[...]
%%%% end primitives.tex
