Modified files:
	usr.bin/mandoc : mandoc.1 

Log message:
Clarify that the -T ps and -T pdf output formats are experimental,
produce low-quality output, and that mandoc(1) is not a
typesetting system.  This should really have been clarified
in this manual page many years ago because producing a typesetting
system has never been a development goal, not even a long-term goal.

Also delete the EXAMPLES entry involving -T ps because that entry puts
undue emphasis on it and can be misconstrued as a recommendation
to use that mode for any particular purpose.

The general idea for this clarification came up talking
to G. Branden Robinson on <[email protected]>.
