I'll take this one, since there's at least one other NetBSD doc 
fix for this manpage that I want to merge in.

Committed the manual page fix (ghelmer fixed the code) to both HEAD 
and RELENG_4.  A merge to RELENG_3 will happen when we're comfortable 
that the fix is solid.

I prefer DES's method of using anaylzed instead of suspended 
for things that are just waiting for an MFC.

Merged onto the RELENG_4 branch in rev 1.9.2.1 of lib/entry.c on 
Tue Mar 14 2000 and rev 1.12.2.2 of crontab/crontab.5 on 
Thu Jun 22 2000.  If Guy wants this in RELENG_3, he can go ahead 
with a merge.  Otherwise, he can close this PR. :-)
