If we want these changes (which is by no means clear -- I can't 
find any discussion of these new options, what they are good 
for, or why we want them), then we should at least document them 
better.

+.It Fl A
+Display the FQDN of each address on all interfaces.
+.It Fl a
+Display alias name(s) of the host.
+.It Fl d
+Display the DNS domain.
+.It Fl f
+Display the FQDN for the hostname.
+.It Fl I
+Display each IP address on all interfaces.
+.It Fl i
+Display the IP address(es) for the hostname.
.It Fl s
-Trims off any domain information from the printed
-name.
+Display the short hostname.

The man page should define all these terms, and explain how they are
related to each other.
