Actually, I don't think I'll mention the -r flag at all.  The route(8)
manpage isn't the right place to document netstat(1)'s flags, IMO.  I
think I'll just say "... please use the netstat(1) command".  On second
thoughts, I think "For that functionality, the netstat(1) command should
be used" would be better.
