G'day team,

Right now, we generate our API documentation in HTML and man page formats.

However I've discovered a problem - when we generate the man pages, we get one 
page in man3 for each function. One of those is "login", which will cause a 
conflict with existing man page for the login() function that most unix 
variants provide.

We could potentially rename that particular man page, but I wonder if it is 
worth providing at all. Does anyone use man pages as an API reference? I know 
that I always use the HTML, which seems more useful with the 
cross-referencing.

Note that this is only for the automatically generated man3 docs. I'm not 
suggesting removing anything in man1.

Thoughts?

Brad
