 Understood. :-)

 Hi,
 
 I have finished my changes according to what I said, and I tried to race
 a bit.  Anway, the below is the listing of manual pages I have made
 changes to, and can be viewed at:
 
 	http://www.pittgoth.com/~hiten/diffs/paths-20020329.diff
 
 You can review the patches found from the above URL.  I have personally
 taken time to review each and every patch I have made, but in any case
 it doesn't hurt to check again. :)
 
 I am submitting a bug-followup to the pending/36406, which should be
 helpful.  It would also be better if robert (rwatson@) has a look at the
 changes, because I have made some changes to the TrustedBSD manual
 pages, especially getextattr.8 and setextattr.8, so I have CC'ed him a
 copy too.
 
 Also, I think the PR should remain open because there are changes which
 need to be made to manual pages which refer to /modules which is
 replaced by /boot/kernel/kernel in -CURRENT.
 
 Let me know your suggestions, comments, etc.
