The EXAMPLES section of `man 1 grap' contains an "extra paste" error: `.G1' marks the start of a graph description and `.G2' the end -- everything in the middle has been re-pasted after the `.G2'.

In short:
	remove lines grap(1):138 through grap(1):150

it's supposed to be that way.  one copy is reproduced
(mostly) verbatium in the output, the other produces
the graph.

Ah! But I think troff or a preprocessor threw errors at me, for having
that bit (well, it was the only problem I could see, or now remember).
