ISTM we should either remove the example programs and replace them
with just a reference, or find a way to include the source code into
the documentation with some kind of include statement instead of
haivng a copy of it. That should be done the same way for all the
example programs, not just the testlo ones of course.

Not sure if it's possible to create such an include though - someone
who knows our toolchain better can hopefully comment on that?
