+            This patch fixes the type of msg_controllen in the struct msghdr
+            definition given in send.2 and recv.2 to match the definition in
+            glibc and the kernel.
+
+select.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Update NOTES on old glibc pselect()
+            Make it clear that modern glibc uses the kernel pselect()
+            on systems where it is available.
+            See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14411

+

+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Clarify that this syscall is obsolete.

+tzfile.5
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Add information on version 2 format timezone files
+            Updated using information from the tzcode 2010l release at
+            ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub.
+            (It's an open question whether or not a version of tzfile.5
+            should live independently in man-pages. It was added to the
+            man-pages set many years ago. For now, I'll follow a
+            conservative course that causes least pain to downstream,
+            by continuing to maintain a separate copy in man-pages.)
