GNU/Linux systems have two sections: 'man 3' for system writeup, and
'man 3p' for POSIX pages. This is useful, because in many instances, the
system writeup has more details about Linux-specific extensions, while
the 3p page is more useful for limiting usage to just portable aspects.
 Having both sets shouldn't hurt, if we have a way to easily open from
either set.
