One reason is that some man pages have not been changed from the vendor
version.  Another reason is that addition of $Id$ is not permitted for
files in src/contrib.  Yet another reason is that some files have
$FreeBSD$ instead of $Id$.

Not quite like that please.  The whitespace in the vendor id got corrupted
somewhere.  FreeBSD $Id$ should normally follow vendor ids and use the same
indentation.

atc.6 has been changed from the vendor version, so it should have an $Id$.
It probably shouldn't be changed now.  Someday all FreeBSD $Id$'s will be
changed to $FreeBSD$'s, and it is annoying for the cvs logs to be spammed
with messages about changing ids back and forth.
