Subject: [patch] hsearch.3: update ERRORS section
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 23:46:00 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E5E4928.7030301@gmail.com> (raw)

man-pages version: latest git repository
why:
Remove ENOMEM and ESRCH from the list for hcreate() and hcreate_h().
The (e)glibc implementation of the two functions (of course!) doesn't
set such errors. The two error codes are garbage from commit fe80e23e.

Then, hdestroy_r() was added to the list.
