Oops!  These should be fixed now; check out the web page.

Yes, ideally examples should be part of the documentation and be
buildable... but first I need to get to write decent documentation.
(There are some new manual pages in the tree, but still document only
a couple of modules...)

Plus I should also extend that page to add a C-only example.

Thanks for spotting this!
