Surely somewhere in > the docs there's something similar... We might need to just special-case this...I presume it's a pretty rare occurance, at least for the normal doc/ tree. BTW, the manpage references in the 5.0-CURRENT and 4.4-STABLE release documentation all point to the wrong place (same problem). In this case, it should be pretty easy to fix in the stylesheet since they *all* need to be changed.
