            Bug ID: 268616
           Summary: mandoc.1 refers to legacy date format yyyy-dd-mm

In /usr/src/contrib/mandoc/mandoc.1 we find:

macro uses the legacy
.Xr man 7
date format
.Dq yyyy-dd-mm .
Consider using the conventional
.Xr mdoc 7
date format

when what it means to say is ... yyyy-mm-dd
(as parsed by a2time(&t, "%Y-%m-%d", in) mandoc.c)
