Set off symbolic signal names (SIG...) with .Dv, and crossreference init(8).
From PR bin/36551 by Greg A. Woods. And while I'm here, fix a grammar nit.
 1.23  03-Jun-2007  uwe branches: 1.23.4; 1.23.6;
Document that reboot(8) passes any arguments to reboot(2) as bootstr.
 1.22  24-May-2007  jnemeth Add a caveat about reboot(8) not running shutdown scripts. This addresses
(at least partially) PR/35067 by Blair Sadewitz.

 1.13  20-Jun-2001  mrg expand -n documentation; from sunos.
 1.12  25-Apr-2000  hubertf Implement a "poweroff" command which is equivalent to "halt -p",
but allows powering down the system from an exec(2) call, e.g. via
a user which has "poweroff" as login shell.

The command name is modeled after Solaris.
 1.11  19-Aug-1999  simonb "-l" means _don't_ log to syslog(3).
 1.10  03-Jul-1998  is Make halt and reboot wait up to 32 seconds after kill(-1, SIGTERM), but

console visible), databases, or Usenet news servers.

 1.3  05-Oct-1995  mycroft Add a `-d' option to force a dump. From John Kohl.
 1.2  18-Mar-1995  cgd pseudo-merge with Lite; man pages need to be merged seperately, but
that's really a port-specific thing. They probably should be updated, too.
