Possible error in src/share/man/man5/rc.conf.5

[Alan Gerber]

Greetings all,

I was browsing through the rc.conf(5) page yesterday when I noticed what 
*could* be an error in the documentation.  Basically I have a nitpick 
with the populate_var tunable - the current documentation says that "a 
memory file system is created if /tmp is not writable" and I believe it 
should say "a memory file system is created if /var is not writable".

The current text is a direct copy from the tmpmfs tunable, so I think 
the original author simply forgot to go back and change the value.  I 
could be wrong, however, as I have not actually tested the functionality 
to see which is the correct statement.  In the case that I turn out to 
be right, however, I'm attaching a copy of the current SGML with my 
modification for your review.
