Log:
  sh(1): Clean up documentation of built-in commands.
  
  Make sure all built-in commands are in the subsection named such, except
  exp, let and wordexp which are deliberately undocumented. The text said only
  built-ins that really need to be a built-in were documented there but in
  fact almost all of them were already documented.

Modified:
  head/bin/sh/sh.1
