ethers(3) recommends that the user should look in netinet/if_ether.h, instead of net/ethernet.h, where the definition actually resides.

This doc bug was introduced in r20288 ( http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=20288 ).

This bug has been around for more than a decade.

Fix: Patch attached with submission follows:
