Thanks, I will apply them.
However, in the future please don't mix mechanistic string-replace
type of changes with real patches which change markup or content.
Like this, for instance:
-@cindex ^error
+@findex ^error
It is very easy to miss such real changes in the middle of gobs of
boring replacements, and fail to consider them. Calling such changes
``typos'' is not really accurate, either ;-).
