 Having sent this I of course went to look if this was a generel issue
 and found that actually strchr / strrchr are identical to index / rindex
 and are in fact implemented from the same .c files.
 
 Wouldn't it make sense to merge the man pages for all for pages since
 all of them are very short and basically identical ?
 
 Unless somebody tells me this is a bad idea I think I will do a new
 patch to merge all four man pages...
