>Description:
The bozohttpd(8) man page

  http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?bozohttpd++NetBSD-current

references the '-r' option in the FILES section, but there is no '-r'
option listed in the SYNOPSIS section.

Looking at main.c

  http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/libexec/httpd/main.c?rev=1.22&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&only_with_tag=MAIN

I see a comment that says

  -r option was removed, do not reuse it for a while

So, I think the reference in the man page should be removed.

This issue was initially reported via the netbsd-users mailing list

  https://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-users/2018/12/11/msg021779.html

but no one replied.
>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
>Fix:
Remove the reference to the '-r' option from the FILES section.  I'd submit a patch myself, but it's not super clear to me what the change should be, so I'm leaving it to someone who knows what is being said about the .bzredirect file in the sentence that references the '-r' option.
