I think we should just submit the patch as is rather than fixing
makewhatis(1).  tuning(7) written by the same author just uses
'FreeBSD' instead of .Fx and therefore shows up properly.

I could not find any other examples of man pages that have this
problem, leading me to conclude that hacking up makewhatis would be
overengineering the solution.
