Summary: su -c: inaccurate manpage
Product: Base System

The su(1) writes:
The options are as follows:
-c class
Use the settings of the specified login class. The login class
must be defined in login.conf(5). Only allowed for the super-
user.
But in the examples:
su -m operator -c poweroff
Starts a shell as user operator, and runs the command poweroff.
So the "-c" doesn't specify the login class instead with it can run a command
as an another user.
