Subject: [patch] usr.bin/ldd/ldd.1 typo fixes not MFC'd

(mailed to bugbusters@ per request, as I'm currently stuck w/ lynx.)

Category: docs
Severity: non-critical
Priority: low
Class: doc-bug
FreeBSD Release: 4.8-RELEASE-p18

Full description:
The following deltas are typos or style, but weren't (as far as I can
tell) MFC'd:
- 1.35 to 1.36
- 1.32 to 1.33
- 1.29 to 1.30
- 1.28 to 1.29
As other typos were MFC'd, I assume these fell through the cracks.

How to repeat the problem:
"man rtld" on -stable.

Fix to the problem if known:
The following diff -u has all changes, minus version bump:

Restrictions or comments:
- I wasn't sure what date to put in .Dd (1.35 to 1.36), so I put today's.
- I left out the part of 1.32 to 1.33 MFC'd in 1.18.2.7 to 1.18.2.8.
