I'm the upstream upstream man-pages maintainer. I'd entertain a patch to improve the documentation, or if someone can give a clear, simple explanation of what needs to be changed, I'll do the patch myself.
It sounds like some people on this thread have already done some digging, and I don't want to repeat their effort from scratch. Also, reading the bug thread, it's not clear if, from the point of view of the reported, things are currently "broken" on AMD64, but will be fixed in a future glibc release. I'd appreciate some clarification on that.
