On the man page for passwd, there is a "-f" option that claims to do the
same thing as chfn.  Similarly, "-s" supposedly does chsh, and "-h" does
a chhome (which doesn't exist anymore...).  The man page for passwd should
be updated to reflect the current options...  Also, chsh and chfn should
have their own man pages if they are not a part of passwd anymore, and
references to chhome should be removed.
