	I have a perl script that checks the source tree and lists invalid
	man page crossreferences (which have to fixed manually
	unfortunately - expect large patch soon :)

	I have one question - (excuse me if I use an except from date.1)

     -n      The utility timed(8) is used to synchronize the clocks on groups
             of machines.  By default, if timed is running, date will set the

	In the above paragraph both 'timed's are put as .Xr
	crossreferences, one with a section number, and one without.
	Is this legitimate? I'd like someone to say '.Xr must always have
	a section number' as that is what the script currently checks.
	Otherwise I have to change it to warn on missing section numbers
	only if it has not seen an earlier .Xr with the number, or its in
	the SEE ALSO section.

	Hmm.. simple to do actually, but not tonight :)

	Comments, thoughts appreciated!
