>Release: FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386
>Environment:
3.0-current, dx4-100, a cold unheated living room in moscow, idaho.
>Description:
ldd takes '-f format' and '-v' options; the man page & code shows this
but the output of ldd's usage() function doesn't. found this thanks to
a ref to 'ldd -v' by bde@freebsd.org in email.
>How-To-Repeat:
man ldd
more src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/ldd/ldd.c
and cf with
% ldd <RET>
>Fix:
