I happened to notice the following 3 errors in my CVS Emacs
"GNU Emacs 22.0.50 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2005-06-18 on LD1"

========= 1 ===========
The Emacs documentation section 20.4 Checking and Correcting Spelling
contains the following text.

This section describes the commands to check the spelling of a single
word or of a portion of a buffer.  These commands work with the spelling
checker program Ispell, which is not part of Emacs.  *Note Ispell:
(ispell)Top.

-> Attempts to follow the Ispell link results in the message

Info file ispell does not exist

========= 2 ===========

The Emacs documentation section 20.4 Checking and Correcting Spelling
contains the following text.

`M-x flyspell-progmode'
     Enable Flyspell mode for comments and strings only.

-> The reference to flyspell-progmode should probably be
flyspell-prog-mode.

========= 3 ===========
