There seems to be a typo in the GRANT documentation.
REFERENCES
 To create of a table with a foreign key constraint, it is
 necessary to have this privilege on the table with the primary
 key.

I think you just want to remove "of".

I also found it odd that currval, nextval, and setval are covered in
the CREATE SEQUENCE and not in a section under functions. Even if the
main documentation for them stays in CREATE SEQUENCE, a reference to
them from the function documentation would be nice.

Fixed.  Thanks.

I will let others answer this one.  I am not sure.

I tend to agree on this: the main docs for the sequence functions should
be in a section under "Functions and Operators", with just a
cross-reference from CREATE SEQUENCE.  Comments?
