A naked tilde ("~") renders poorly in PDF. Instead use "\(ti",
which renders better in a PDF, and produces the same glyph

proc.5: Use "pwd -P" for printing cwd
...
"/bin/pwd" happens to work with the GNU coreutils implementation,
which has -P as the default, contrary to POSIX requirements.
Use "pwd -P" instead, which is shorter, easier to type, and should
work everywhere.

...
These are all links that were created several years ago, mainly
when pages were migrated to different sections, in order to
allow the 'man' commands using the old section numbers to work.
However, the plan was always to eventually remove them, after
allowing people who cared to get used to the new section numbers.
Now, after 5+ years in each case, it's time to remove
these links.

Yes, that's right. The tzfile format covers timestamps that predate the
introduction of UTC in 1960, so the documentation uses the sloppier and
more-general term "UT" instead of the more-precise term "UTC".

proc.5: Fix an outdated note about map_files
...
The restriction to CAP_SYS_ADMIN was removed from map_files in
2015 [1]. There was a fixme that indicted this might happen, but
the main text was never updated when this commit landed. While
we're at it, add a note about the ptrace access check that is
still required.

ipc.5: Remove old link to svipc.7/sysvipc.7 page

Long ago, the sysvipc.7 page was called ipc.5, which was both a
misnaming (too general a name) and an inconsistent section. The
page was renamed (to svipc.7) many years ago, and the link with
the old name has probably ceased to be needed. So, remove it.
