FUBAR is as good as what is already there.  Simply drawing 
attention to the people responsible for libxo's inclusion
in FreeBSD that they need to fix it.

There isn't a public mailing list or other mechanism to

I have way too many accounts on way too many systems

It seems that libxo developers have no interest in FreeBSD documentation.

https://github.com/Juniper/libxo/issues/13

Those that imported/maintain libxo within FreeBSD should fix the
documentation.
