>Description:
	I find myself doing
		pkg_comp chroot pkg_delete xxx
	or
		pkg_comp chroot pkg_chk ...
	or
		(various similar, pkg_add, ...)
	fairly frequently for one reason or other.

	I know I could do

		pkg_comp chroot

	and leave a shell i the chroot, at which to type
	commands (pkg_delete, ...) but for various reasons that
	isn't always convenient.

	The "chroot" word in the above commands is essentially
	useless, not doing that would be not using pkg_comp at all.

	So, I thoughit I'd see how hard it would be to make the
	chroot optional, when the next command is a pkg_* type
	command (it could be made optional for all unrecognised
	following commands, but that makes it less effective at
	catching common typos, so I thought that may be a bit too far)
>How-To-Repeat:
	Use pkg_comp a lot, get frustrated by keepig forgetting to
	type "chroot" in svery 2nd or third command...
>Fix:
	The patch below adds the functionality I desired.
	The change is trivial.

	There's also a (probably lame) addition to the man page.
	Someone who understands mdoc should check that, I have no
	idea what I'm doing in that macro package.

	And, for good measure, I also corrected a minor typo in the
	man page that I happened to notice while checking.
