Greg, in our manpages we (usually) refer to official releases,
even not yet released.  :-)

The "first appearence" should list the lowest release number
this particular feature has appeared in.

So unless this is MFC'ed, it states 5.0-RELEASE (no "-RELEASE"
is visible, but this is implied).  After this is MFC'ed, this
should be changed to whatever release this appeared in.
