I just now noticed a few processes running (via ps -ax) that don't
appear to have associated man pages:

gconfd-2
polkitd
console-kit-daemon
hald-addon-mouse-sysmouse:
hald-runner


Does anyone other than me think that this is something that should be
rectified?

Note that there does appear to exist a man page elsewhere for at least
one of the above:

   http://www.freedesktop.org/software/polkit/docs/latest/polkitd.8.html

I have no idea why that didn't get installed on my FreeBSD (9.1) system.

Should I file PRs on these things?
