Thank you for spotting those typos!  Personally, I hate typos in
comments and docs as they make me suspect that the author didn't
have enough concentration to write good code either. :-)

My only remark is that we should't touch the files in src/crypto/
or the manpages in src/secure/.  The former are much like those
in src/contrib/, while the latter are auto-generated from the POD
files in src/crypto/.

Having said that, I'll happily correct the rest of slips you've
found.  Thanks, and Happy New Year!
