Sorry for the misdirect of this email. This man page problem was document as bug 81359. The bug was closed with a conclusion of "[The] manual pages are hopelessly outdated [ - use info instead]".

Report it to the maintainer of the manpages. The manual pages are outdated or wrong on more issues than this, I recommend using the glibc manual. Jeroen Dekkers |
