Moved this to -doc since it's more appropriate to discuss the proposed
changes there :)

I've uploaded at http://people.freebsd.org/~keramida/diff a set of
files that change all the articles to use `manual page' instead of
`manpage'.  Look for diff.000.* -> diff.008.* files.

If it seems ok and we want to standardize on `manual page' instead of
manpage, I think I can have the books/ later tonight too.

What does everyone think about this?
