No, the above location is out of date.  This is an
XFree86 path.  I finally found the following path, but
it appears to point to an agglomerated pdf file which
contains an XFree86 3.3.1 exerpt.  So, this is not
quite correct either.

http://x.org/X11R6.8/doc/man/

This document refers to a README.S3, but this seems
again to be a stale reference.

Thanks anyway for your answer, Joel.  It seems to be
appropriate for RedHat 7.3, as I found by checking a
system here.
