Typo in scanf

[Alain <alainb06-GANU6spQydw@public.gmane.org>]

/** Sorry, sent again as mimetype plain text (1st mail rejected) **/

There is a typo in the example given under "Note" section.

Sorry I saw just now that there is a very easy way to report that by
mail... I already files the report (and details such as version used =
Ubuntu 10.04.3) here :

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/man-db/+bug/891854

Typo is:

fprintf(stderr, "No matching characters\n"):

Should be instead

fprintf(stderr, "No matching characters\n");


( ';' semicolon terminates an C instruction, and not ':' colon )

I also made a suggestion (see bug report), to change the example using
the 'm' modifier as 'a' seems rather dangerous and obsolete.
This second part is just a suggestion (subject to discussion) whereas
the typo is really there and makes compiling without errors impossible.

Best regards.
