Of course, the &os entity is not used entirely consistently in the handbook.
In fact, it is used so inconsistently that I did not change it during
my (ongoing)
sweep through the handbook (originally for grammar nits, but got stalled
a bit in updating the multimedia chapter).

It may be useful to go through and change all of the (appropriate) literal
FreeBSD's into &os-es at once, prior to doing includes.
