 From long ago memory, (declare-initial-value ......
is one of the things that jade does to set a parameter to its 
basic operation.
I seem to recall using it for something or other such as setting
basic font-size, e.g. (declare-initial-font-size 14pt)

If I'm right (I am occasionally!!) then you won't find much in
the way of documentation or a function definition unless its 
a part of the spec etc.
