Stop!! These pages are special. They are periodically imported from 
the tz project. It's an odd situation. Glibc imports these tools
from the tz project, but does not release manual pages. So,
periodically (when Paul Eggert reminds me), I resync the pages from
the tz project. In general, I try to just leave them alone (although
I have suggested a few fixes upstream to Paul), although I see
I have touched some of those pages in global edits.

AFAIR, the only other special page is bpf-helpers.7, which
is generated from the kernel source files using scripts.
Every few months, I try to remember to run the scripts
to resync.

Thanks,

Michael
