The man page is another thing that shouldn't have been MFC'ed :-).
The timeout was changed from 0 to 5 in it a few days after changing
the value in the kernel (rev.1.16 of comcontrol.8 and rev.1.13[1-4]
of kern/tty.c).  The changes in the man page were MFC'ed 16 months
later (rev.1.15.2.4) but the kernel changes still haven't been
MFC'ed.
