  FWIW, I have been contributing to both glibc and the man-pages and
I absolutely agree with your experience and your proposal.

  I believe that man-pages are the de facto reference documentation for
GNU libc used by the developers, even in cases where both man-pages and
the info manual cover something, and we should face that reality, i.e.
actively care for man-pages correctness and completeness, not treat it
with contempt or indifference.
