Typo in stdio manpage

Typo in stdio manpage

[Daan Spitz]

L.S,

I would like to inform you of a small error in the manpage for stdio.
The error is in the following sentence at the end of the 5th paragraph
of the description:

"if and only if the streams do not to refer to an interactive device"

The first occurance of the word "to" seems to be out of place here.

Kind regards,
Daan Spitz

I forgot to mention that I am using manpages version 3.45-1 on my Arch
linux system.
