I don't think it's important, but:

$ uname -a
FreeBSD scientia.demon.co.uk 3.2-STABLE FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE #139: Tue Aug 10 15:56:40 BST 1999     ben@scientia.demon.co.uk:/usr/src/sys/compile/SCIENTIA  i386

>Description:

The err.3 manpage documents the errc, verrc, warnc, and vwarnc functions
(amongst others).  While the other functions have {name}.3.gz linked
to err.3.gz when installed, these functions do not. This leads to minor
annoyances such as `No manual entry for errc'. There may be a good reason
for this, of course.

>How-To-Repeat:

$ man errc
No manual entry for errc

>Fix:
