This is automatically generated email about problems in a man page for which
you appear to be responsible. If you are not the right person or list, tell
me and I will attempt to correct my database.
See http://catb.org/~esr/doclifter/problems.html for details on how and
why these patches were generated. Feel free to email me with any questions.
Note: This patch does not change the mod date of the manual page. You
may wish to do that by hand.
Problems with fam.3x:
1. Unknown or invalid macro. That is, one that does not fit in the
macro set that the man page seems to be using. This is a serious
error; it often means part of your text is being lost or rendered
incorrectly.
2. Broken command synopsis syntax. This may mean you're using a
construction in the command synopsis other than the standard
[ ] | { }, or it may mean you have running text in the command synopsis
section (the latter is not technically an error, but it's impossible
to translate into DocBook markup).
