Comment 2 Jose Luis Duran 2023-12-28 07:48:34 UTC

I want to extend the title of this bug report to also include cross-references. Any manual that is cross-referenced, and contains an underscore is also broken.

Five links currently broken under <https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=loader&sektion=8&manpath=freebsd-release#BUILTIN%09COMMANDS>, for example.
