+posix_fallocate.3
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        SEE ALSO: add fallocate(1)
+
+regex.3
+    Reuben Thomas
+        Clarify details of matching
+            The first is that it's far from clear that the end points of the
+            complete string match are stored in the zero'th element of the
+            regmatch_t array; secondly, the phrase "next largest substring
+            match" is positively misleading, implying some sort of size
+            ordering, whereas in fact they are ordered according to their
+            appearance in the regex pattern.
+
+scanf.3
+    Michael Kerrisk

+            page to cover it and relegate the glibc-specific 'a' flag to
+            NOTES.

+strtol.3

+        Replace some bogus text about "thousands separator"
+            See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652870
+
+sysconf.3

+            s/_SC_PAGE_SIZE/_SC_PAGESIZE/ in one instance.
+            From Red Hat downstream patch.

+            the value in /proc/sys/fs/file-max.
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Note message written to kernel log when file-max limit is hit
+            Info from Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt.
