New submission from Geoffrey Spear:

The documentation for os.times directs the reader: "See the Unix manual page 
times(2) or the corresponding Windows Platform API documentation."

However, the POSIX manual page in question is times(3P), and on OS X and BSD 
systems it's times(3). Falling back to "man times" without specifying a manual 
section also doesn't work, since this finds the bash builtin rather than the 
library function.
