Man pages are easy to fix !
Just edit the source & send in a diff with send-pr.

Handbook pages are harder to edit, cos it uses a tool chain that always breaks 
for me, so editing source for that is harder,
but you can still use send-pr.

If necessary let the www@ team reverse your HTML diffs back to their
SGML or whatever ;-)
