>Description:
The command `man 5 core' shows:
The size of a ``page'' is given
by the constant NBPG (also from <sys/param.h>).
But I cannot find `NBPG' definition via `find /usr/include |
xargs grep NBPG'.
I saw <machine/param.h> which is included by <sys/param.h>,
and I found pagesize definition is `PAGE_SIZE'. So, I think
that `NBPG' should be replaced with `PAGE_SIZE' on FreeBSD.
>How-To-Repeat:
% man 5 core
>Fix:
Apply following patch to src/share/man/man5/core.5
(rev.1.2.2.1 and rev.1.5).
