>Organization:
Sandia National Laboratories
>Environment:

3.3-RELEASE, but affects 4-CURRENT also

>Description:

abs(3) manpage should have a cross-reference for fabs(3).

>How-To-Repeat:

% man abs

Note lack of cross-reference to a floating-point absolute-value
function.  Scratch head in puzzlement.  Use whatis(1) to find it.

>Fix:
	
Add this line to the "SEE ALSO" section of src/lib/libc/stdlib/abs.3:

.Xr fabs 3 ,
