Hello Peter,

Thank you!
I see that M is just an alias for MUMPS. I stumbled upon the 
inconsistency between B015, B115, B125, M022 on the one side and M015 on 
the other. Anyway, it's definitely not a bug in our docs.

Please look at the following errors/fixes.

Patch #2 is for consistency on [1].
Bug #6 is the most interesting. Table "Table F-17. Hash Algorithm 
Speeds" on [2] contains following row:
/Algorithm | Hashes/sec//
//crypt-bf/5 | 13504/
And there is a following note below the table:
/For reference: john -test shows 213 loops/sec for crypt-bf/5. (The very 
small difference in results is in accordance with the fact that the 
crypt-bf implementation in pgcrypto is the same one used in John the 
Ripper.)/
It seems that the number 213 is out of sync with the table contents. 
("Very small difference" was indeed present before [3]. See [4].)
As I can't reproduce exact numbers on my machine, I suggest to slightly 
increase the number that was specified in the table (+2 as before).
