What does it mean when apropos lists ``\'' instead of ``(n)'' (n being a
section number)?  E.g., if I do ``apropos ipnat'', I get the following:

 /~~~ shell excerpt

$ apropos ipnat
ipnat (4) - Network Address Translation kernel interface
ipnat (8) - user interface to the NAT
ipnat \- user interface to the NAT
ipnat, ipnat.conf (5) - IP NAT file format
$

 \___ shell excerpt

...notice the second to last result returned.

FWIW: NetBSD/i386 1.4 with a 1.4.1 kernel.
