>Description:
In the DESCRIPTION section of the amdtemp(4) man page, there is a "be" that 
does not belong there: "...and there are be up to two cores per CPU
socket."

Under "SEE ALSO", there is a reference to an envstat(4) man page that
does not exist. I think that should be envstat(8) instead?!

Also, the envsys(4) man page could probably be listed in the "SEE ALSO"
section, too.

And finally, I think the wording of the second sentence in "HISTORY"
could be improved. Please refer to the below diff.

>How-To-Repeat:
man amdtemp
