>Description:
The dig(1) man page has some wrong nroff/troff requests.
This is not a NetBSD-related problem, it happens in other
operating systems (e. g., Linux Slackware) too.  This is
the wrong section in the man page:

    [...]
    it.  As an option, the user may set the environment variable
    LOCALRES to name a file which is to be used instead of
    /etc/resolv.conf standard resolver (LOCALRESis specific to
    the dig resolver and  is  not  referenced  by  the). [...]

Once fixed, it looks:

    [...]
    which use it.  As an option, the user may set the environment
    variable LOCALRES to name a file which is to be used instead
    of /etc/resolv.conf (LOCALRES is specific to the dig resolver
    and is not referenced by the standard resolver).  [...]

>How-To-Repeat:
The problem exists in the man page source code:

    $ nroff -man /usr/share/man/man1/dig.1 | more
