Hi all,

I think there's a typo in the documentation of the MINLOC and MAXLOC intrinsics. It implies that when the BACK argument is true it returns the first occurrence of the min/max value,
but my understanding is that it should return the last occurrence.

This patch fixes the documentation.

Ok for trunk?
Thanks,
Kyrill

    * intrinsic.texi (MINLOC): Fix typo in BACK argument documentation.
    (MAXLOC): Likewise.
