problems in one or more man pages you maintain

This is automatically generated email about problems in a man page for which
you appear to be responsible.  If you are not the right person or list, tell
me and I will attempt to correct my database.

See http://catb.org/~esr/doclifter/problems.html for details on how and
why these patches were generated.  Feel free to email me with any questions.

Note: This patch does not change the mod date of the manual page.  You
may wish to do that by hand.

Problems with File::Basename.3pm:
1. There are multiple name lines.  This makes it impossible to translate
the page to DocBook.  It may also confuse some implementations
of man -k.
