1. `eval-defun' is not in the Elisp manual index, except for one
occurrence in the section on edebug. Nodes `Defining Variables'
and `Variable Definitions' should be indexed for `eval-defun'.
We don't use the index that way.
2. The doc string of `eval-defun' mentions only `defvar' and
`defcustom'. It should also mention the same behavior for
`defface'.
3. The Elisp manual, node Defining Faces, which discusses `defface',
should also mention the C-M-x (`eval-defun') behavior for
`defface'. The nodes discussing `defvar' and `defcustom' mention
it, but `defface' was forgotten.
I fixed these. Thanks for reporting them.
