stat(1) manpage displays non-existant (?) option

[Rares Aioanei]

Hi, 

Environment is NetBSD 7.0/i386. The manpage displays -v as an option : 

"-v            Turn off quiet mode."

However, that option is not recognized by stat(1) : 

$ stat -v
stat: unknown option -- v

However (again), the stat(1) code seems to indicate otherwise : 

while ((ch = getopt(argc, argv, options)) != -1)
                switch (ch) {
                case 'F':
                        lsF = 1;
                        break;
                case 'L':
                        usestat = 1;
                        break;
                case 'n':
                        nonl = 1;
                        break;
                case 'q':
                        quiet = 1;
                        break;
                case 'f':
                        if (am_readlink) {
                                statfmt = "%R";
                                break;
                        }
                        statfmt = optarg;
                        /* FALLTHROUGH */
                case 'l':
                case 'r':
                case 's':
                        if (am_readlink) {
                                quiet = 1;
                                break;
                        }
                        /*FALLTHROUGH*/
                case 'x':
                        if (fmtchar != 0)
                                errx(1, "can't use format '%c' with
'%c'", fmtchar, ch);
                        fmtchar = ch;
                        break;
                case 't':
                        timefmt = optarg;
                        break;
                case 'v':
                        quiet = 0;
                        break;
                default:
                        usage(synopsis);
                }
