>Description:
	Only three man pages include a comment about bumping .Dd for
inon-trivial changes, this is left over from (presumaby) when the man
page was created from a clone of the example man pages which also include
this comment.  Given only three real manpages include it, it may as well
be removed - the chance that one of these three man pages is the page
somebody edits without understanding .Dd is pretty slim, and it also
helps to bring these into the style of all other man pages.  Don't bump
.Dd as it's a trivial change :)
