>Description:
The `usage'-line of uuencode(1) does not match the `SYNOPSIS'
line of its manpage.
The naming of the manpage should probably be kept, since there
isn't really a `remotefile', as the `usage'-line calls it.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ uuencode
usage: uuencode [-m] [infile] remotefile
$ man -h 1 uuencode|head -n1
uuencode [-m] [file] name
>Fix:
Apply the following (proposed) patch:
$ diff -u /usr/src/usr.bin/uuencode/uuencode.c uuencode.c.new
