I attach said patches; WDYT?

The first patch reconciles the code listings in the manual with the
current state of the corresponding libraries.

The second patch enables lexical-binding in text-mode.el along with some
minor aesthetic changes.

The last patch fulfils an old promise in the manual to eventually forgo
setting indent-line-function in text-mode, which is considered
redundant.

Thanks,
