eb02489380 man pages: Add a comma after "e.g." and "i.e."
Add a comma (,) after "e.g." and "i.e.", or use English words
(man-pages(7) [package "manpages"]).

  Abbreviation points should be protected (usually with the
non-printing, zero width character '\&') from being interpreted as an
end of sentence, if they are not, and that independent of their current
place on the line.

  This is important when typing, as one does not usually know in
advance when the editor jumps to a new line.

8c863d0eac eject: use O_EXCL on default
* by default we assume all is umounted; so O_EXCL is no problem,
  otherwise there is bug or race (someone else remounted the device)...

* --force and --no-umount disable O_EXCL

f053ff1e3a Place SEE ALSO entries in order
This patch does only the following:

* Order SEE ALSO entries first by section name, then alphabetically
  within section
* Adds one or two missing commas in SEE ALSO lists
* Removes one or two periods that were (inconsistently) used
  at the end of SEE ALSO lists.
