I'm glad this is separate from the other spelling fixes. I'm also not
sure if this is best as one patch or three; it's small enough to be
one, but if there's concern that folks might like one spelling fix but
not the others (I was surprised "c.f." wasn't correct since that's
what I've run across more but never knew what it actually stood for),
then splitting would be better. So, *shrug*.
