Thanks, Cryil, I've already committed something similar to my private working
branch of libaio:

commit 485723669addf25eab4f4cc7a3e1da0b392b7c11
Author: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Mon Mar 11 14:17:22 2013 -0400

    man: remove bogus .1 pages
    
    I have no idea why there would ever be man pages in section 1 for
    the libaio routines, so let's get rid of them.  Note that they
    were often incomplete and/or wrong.

commit a70f638383b0969f79110710bd0870b160bc7068
Author: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@xxxxxxxxxx>

    man: remove the glibc aio man pages
    
    These pages are not maintained here, and they don't describe any
    functions this library provides, so let's get rid of them.

I'm also working on some updates to the io_* system call man pages
provided by man-pages.  I'll push that work out as soon as I am
finished.  Sorry for the delay and duplicated work.
