NetBSD venom.local 4.0_STABLE NetBSD 4.0_STABLE (X31.full) #3: Sat Mar 29

>Description:
The manpage for netstat has all options in alphabetical order, except: -r and
-s are in wrong order.
The mistake exists in NetBSD 4, 5 and is still in HEAD. Ofcourse it is also not
very important :-)
>How-To-Repeat:
man netstat
>Fix:
apply the following patch (for HEAD) to src/usr.bin/netstat/netstat.1:
# diff -u netstat.1.orig netstat.1
--- netstat.1.orig 2009-02-13 11:01:03.000000000 +0100
+++ netstat.1 2009-02-13 11:02:37.000000000 +0100
