thanks

In #300892 (http://bugs.debian.org/300892), the bug submitter suggest
to add cross references in man pages for utilities which make use of
login.defs variables. He suggest to add a reference to login.defs(5)
in SEE ALSO as well as adding /etc/login=A0;defs in the list of FILES.

The attached patch, relative to current CVS, does this.

Tomasz, as usual, if you apply, please notify us....

PS=A0: I kept the reference to login.defs in usermod(8) while it
actually could be moved in a "non-PAM" only section as the only
relevant variable is MAIL_DIR

--=20
