 Good point...
 
 FWIW, I have a patch that adds this option to pstat and swapinfo.
 Most of it has been reviewed a couple of times by Ruslan Ermilov, and
 I plan to commit it as soon as I get back home.
 
 So, in my opinion, the correct fix is to add the missing option,
 instead of removing the manpage stuff :-)
