A PR with patch to fix all the files would be the best.  A list of the 
files to change and changes to be made is probably just as difficult to 
create, but would also work.

For the man page, I’ll try to find time to follow the "FreeBSD 
Documentation Project Primer for New Contributors", even if it seems 
quite daunting.

For the make infrastructure, I’m quite sure I won’t be able to fulfil 
the task, but I’ll try too.

Best regards,
Juan
