>Description:
The manpage describing the functions link_addr and link_ntoa
is named "linkaddr.3" but the functions have an underscore.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to run man on the output of "apropos link".
(Perhaps it would be useful to have a whatis database /
man page consistancy checker?)
>Fix:
Rename src/lib/libc/net/linkaddr.[3c] to link_addr.[3c] and
update the Makefile as below.
Note that it might be a good idea to make link_ntoa et al
consistent with ether_ntoa et al, and so move them to
links(3) or something...
