page for now isn't the descriptive text, it's the comments in the

should look like. also useful is the one stop shopping list of
non-deprecated bootstrap-related commands and files.

change:

.Sh "SEE ALSO"
to:
.Sh SEE ALSO
The doc macros check for the latter (actually just for 'SEE' as the first
argument to .Sh) to set the section header SEE ALSO flag, which modifies
some behaviour (e.g. references done with .Rs/.Re).

Rewrite. This manual page now has enough detail to guide a new NetBSD user through the basic steps of adding a new user. This also has more cross references to help point a new user towards more detailed explanations of the commands and files used.
