I wasn't very angry.  I'm simply pointing out that the libxo
manpages, which should document what libxo is/does, are 
horrible documentation.  If the quality of the manpages 
matches the quality of library, and the brokeness that
we have been witnesses bears this out, should be questioned.

% cd src/contrib/libxo/libxo
% grep Nd *.3 | grep formatted
xo_attr.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_create.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_emit.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_finish.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_flush.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_open_list.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_set_allocator.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_set_flags.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_set_info.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_set_style.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments
xo_set_writer.3:.Nd emit formatted output based on format string and arguments

Do you really believe that the Nd entries for these manpages are
correct?
