>Description:

	Recently Kazu added a new -M flag to vidcontrol to allow the selection
	of the base character for rendering the mouse pointer. This patch
	updates the vidcontrol man page to include mention of the new
	flag.

	Currently, this only applies to -current, but PR kern/15996 MFC's
	the functionality to -stable. When that PR is closed, then this
	patch can also be MFC'ed to -stable.

		Here's a poem for FreeBSD
		as it gets a little surgery.
		A simple patch to make it better
		and accurate down to the letter.

	-Kelly
