>Description:
The following snippet from gprof(1):

     -z      Display routines that have zero usage (as shown by call counts
	     and accumulated time).  This is useful with the -c option for
	     discovering which routines were never called.

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gprof&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8-current&format=html

mentions the "-c" option, but there isn't such option throughout the man page.  There's a "-C" option, but I'm not sure if it is the correct one.

Spotted on a 6.1-RELEASE man page, also occurs in 8-CURRENT.
