Public bug reported:

This isn't a big issue, just a couple slight errors in the manpage for
'killall'.

- for -o (--older-than), the manpage says 'Match only processes that are
older (started before) the time specified', I think this should say
'Match only processes that are older than (started before) the time
specified'

- for -y (--younger-than), the manpage states the same as for -o, 'Match
only processes that are older (started before) the time specified', this
should say 'Match only processes that are younger than (started before)
the time specified.

This bug affects the following versions: 22.10-1 (latest available in
lucid), 22.11-1 (latest available in maverick) , 22.13-1 (latest
available in natty) and 22.14-1 (latest available in oneiric and
precise).

I have attached a patch for the latest version in oneiric and precise
(22.14-1), however the same patch should work for the other versions
where this bug is present.
