Examples in man pages need special treatment since man adds a 5 column
left margin and then must mangle tabs to preserve 8-column indentation.
The examples must at least be formatted for width 74 instead of 79, but
74 is better anyway.
I had some success turning SYNOPSIS sections into C code for checking
that the headers are complete and the documented prototypes agree with
the headers. Large examples would probably have to be extracted manually
since they are less structured than SYNOPSIS sections.
