--- Comment #1 from Allan Jude <allanjude at FreeBSD.org> ---
The correct man page to add this information to is crypt(3)

The sha512(3) man page is about the hashing algorithm, not the password hashing
system.

It may be worth adding a note to sha256(3) and sha512(3) pointing reads to the
correct place if they do end up in the wrong place.
