Re: docs/188786: Bug in inet(3) man page (inet_aton())

Hi Michael,

Sorry it took me so long to reply.  I had a lot of catching up to do after 
BSDCan...

I think that what makes the page a little confusing is that it uses
both terms "Internet address" and "network address" without making it
clear that they are synonymous (and thus leaving the potential for the
reader to think they are not). This might not normally be problematic,
but given that the page is also talking about the 'network' and 'host'
components of the address, there is scope for confusion. Not a big
thing, I guess, but FWIW that's the confusion that I tried to avoid in
the Linux man page by using the term "binary address"; see
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/inet.3.html#DESCRIPTION


I see how there could be confusion, and we could probably do better.
I'll put taking a look at this man page in general on my todo list, but 
leave this PR cloesd for now.
(I do remember that a lot of the functional parts of classful addressing 
have actually been removed from FreeBSD, but not whether this part in 
particular was removed.  I'll have to check.)


Thanks again for the submission, it's always good to get suggestions.
