Description Frank Shute 2009-12-30 14:20:00 UTC

ldd(1) isn't mentioned in the "see also" section of the ld(1)
manpage but should be (IMHO).

Fix: 

Put ldd(1) in the "see also" section of the ld(1) manpage.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

I agree this is a good idea, but atm 'ld' is contributed  software not 
maintained by us, so we shall not modify the man page. Thank you for 
helping to make freebsd better!
