Patch to clean up contrib.texi


This patch fixes the alphabetical order (which had become rather
approximate) in contrib.texi and makes a few other fixes.  It passes
"make info" and "make dvi".  OK to commit to mainline and branch?

2001-06-11  Joseph S. Myers  <jsm28@cam.ac.uk>

	* doc/contrib.texi: Fix alphabetical order.  Fix typos.  Improve
	markup.
