+===================

+These have nothing to with man-pages.  They are documentation
+of in-kernel APIs, built from specially formatted comments in 
+the kernel source.  After installing the required software, these 
+pages can be built from a kernel source tree using the command 
+'make mandocs'; see the kernel source file Documentation/HOWTO
