Description Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai 2002-12-14 10:40:02 UTC 
The madvise(2) manual page is too specific and redundant.
It shows an excerpt of the mman.h header file complete with definitions
of the symbolic names to the values.
Just mentioning the names, which happens later on in the manual page, should
be enough, and not cause people to hardwire any values.

Fix: Apply attached patch:
How-To-Repeat: 
Read the manual page.
