1. Error in man page

   Hi all
   
   In looking up the substr() function I just noticed this:
   (man pgbuiltin)
   
              text     ltrim(text,text)          left trim characters from
   text
              text     position(text,text)       extract specified substring
   --->>>--------------------------cut and past error? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
              text     rpad(text,int,text)       right pad string to 
   specified length
              text     rtrim(text,text)          right trim characters from
   text
              text     substr(text,int[,int])    extract specified substring
   --->>>--- same as this -------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
              text     upper(text)               convert text to upper case
   
   Have a great day

   pgbuitin manual page is gone from 6.4.
