find better way to indicate multiple architectures, maybe: |

allow .Dt vgafb 4 "macppc sparc64" |
|
already shown as "Device Drivers Manual (macppc sparc64)" |
|
for apropos, make that "vgafb(4) - macppc # sparc64" instead of "- all" |
|
groff can be made to show multiple arches, too, but it is |
|
tedious to do the string parsing in roff code... |
