Actually, the real change was addition of 'this' and a comma; or was on one of the touched lines, so I reflowed it. I wouldn't submit a patch just to fix wrapping. I think it's clear with my patch. >- checked out.

Will do. I hadn't found that doc yet (fyi, I have to remove 'docproj' to get <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/>), but will work on SGML instead of HTML renders. If that's recommended reading for doc submitters, it should probably be listed on <http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/index.html>.
