Subject: contradictional sentence in clone(2) man page

In the discussion of CLONE_VM I find this sentence:

> If the CLONE_VM flag is specified and the CLONE_VM flag is
> not specified, then any alternate signal stack that was
> established by sigaltstack(2) is cleared in the child
> process.

Which simply doesn't make sense. I guess one of them should have been the name 
of another flag.
