$ man -h rdsetroot
        rdsetroot [-dx] kernel [disk.fs]
vs.
        $ rdsetroot
        usage: rdsetroot [-dx] bsd [fs]

Clarify that -x uses stdout (could be a default file like ktrace(1) does)
and switch 'standard in/output' to more common '.Va stdin/out' like the
related vnconfig(8) does.

Explaining how disk images can round trip through rdsetroot and vnconfig
is vaguely useful, imho, even less so in the description of -x, so briefly
mention the relation and let readers follow the reference for more.

Feedback? Objection? OK?
