Any chance you could submit a patch to the source file?:

doc/src/sgml/earthdistance.sgml

... or, barring that, suggest particular language at particular
line numbers in the source based on the gitweb page?:

http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=blob;f=doc/src/sgml/earthdistance.sgml;h=f9002b235b83d8e2facd9164a66db46792f6e54a;hb=HEAD
