It's obviously out of date, since its only example of using NOTREACHED is 
after a usage() call, and this usage is missing a __dead2.  Of course it
doesn't use NOTREACHED after its 3 exit() calls or its 2 err() calls or
its 1 errx() call, so its "should" requirement for using NOTREACHED is
mostly not satisfied by itself.
