It means that anywhere you use a vid, you can use directly a varinfo 
(the vid necessarily comes from its associated varinfo). So instead of 
using a hashtbl (or a map, or a set) indexed by your vid, you can now 
use Cil_datatype.Varinfo.Hashtbl (or .Map, or .Set). Doing this change 
will simplify your code (that was at least the case for all the Frama-C 
codebase that we saw when we propagated this change).

Hope this helps,
Julien
