>Description:
The getpagesize(3) library call already exists since 4.2BSD (according to its manpage), so this is wrong.
Should be corrected to getpagesizes(3) - that's what really appeared in 7.3 with r203170.
The original text below.
<para>&os; <application>libc</application> library now includes
&man.getpagesize.3; function that returns either the number of
page sizes supported by the system or a specified subset of
the supported page sizes.</para>
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
I guess the next (or similar) should go to the Errata page (attached).
