>Description:
1) should manpage for sort(1) contain a SEE ALSO for qsort(3) and
radixsort(3) [since those refer to sort(1) in their SEE ALSOs]
2) manpage for radixsort(3) doesn't describe the nmemb parameter.
Presumably it's the same as the nmemb parameter of qsort(3).
3) manpage for getdents(2):
a) typo in ERRORS section gtdents --> getdents.
b) should mention that the d_fileno entry in the struct can be
zero for files which appear in the list but are no longer
actually on the system. Is this due to compaction which
happens?
