How about just dropping support for /etc/appletalk.names, which as far
as I can tell was never used, and drop the manpage bit, reducing it by
10%. Most of the text in the manpage is outdated anyway, talking about
/etc/atalk.names - support for which was removed in 2004 with the
privsep work. Something like this:

-.Ss KIP AppleTalk (DDP in UDP)
-AppleTalk DDP packets encapsulated in UDP datagrams

-.Pq i.e., all the UDP header information is discarded .
-The file

-The first two lines give the names of AppleTalk networks.
-The third line gives the name of a particular host
-(a host is distinguished from a net by the 3rd octet in the number;
-a net number
-.Em must
-have two octets and a host number
-.Em must
-have three octets).
-The number and name should be separated by whitespace (blanks or tabs).
-The

-.Ed
-.Pp
-If
-.Pa /etc/atalk.names
-doesn't exist or doesn't contain an entry for some AppleTalk
-host/net number, addresses are printed in numeric form.
-In the first example, NBP
-.Pq DDP port 2
-on net 144.1 node 209
-is sending to whatever is listening on port 220 of net icsd-net node 112.
-The second line is the same except the full name of the source node is known
-.Pq Dq office .
-The third line is a send from port 235 on
-net jssmag node 149 to broadcast on the icsd-net NBP port.
-The broadcast address

-is indicated by a net name with no host number;
