Synopsis: xargs(1) is wrong about standards compliance

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: tjr
State-Changed-When: Wed Jul 10 18:42:10 PDT 2002
State-Changed-Why: 
FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE and 5.0-CURRENT have the -p and -E options as
required by IEEE Std. 1003.1-2001. I agree that the manual page in releases
up to and including 4.6 should mention the year of the standard it
claims conformance to. I believe it refers to the 1992 edition where
xargs has this Synopsis:
	xargs  [-t] [-n number  [-x] ] [-s size] [utility [argument ...]]
