Just want to mention that I find all of these document names confusing.
Maybe because some of them predate me, or predate me using a computer, I
do not know.

Therefore, I thought I should mention the names are described in
standards(7) along with the full documents they correspond to. I would
stick to the names listed there for consistency. That is what I have
done when making changes to the glibc and gnulib manuals.
