clock_nanosleep.2, execve.2, fork.2, nanosleep.2, sigaction.2, timerfd_create.2, pthread_getcpuclockid.3, ualarm.3, usleep.3, pthreads.7, time.7: Global fix: s/(3)/(2)/ in section number xrefs for timer_*() API
...
The POSIX timers API is implemented (mostly) within the kernel,
so thse interfaces are system calls. Although there are as yet
no man pages, when they are added they should be in Section 2,
not 3. Therefore fix those pages that currently refer to these
interfaces as being in Section 3.
