Hi all,

I attached two small diffs for newsyslog, which resulted as a byproduct
of another change I hope to send here soon.

- The first diff clarifies in newsyslog(8) that the signal field is
  optional, as it is stated there for every other optional field.
- The second diff allows using the F flag on its own. Before it was
  possible to use the F flag if it followed other flags. However, when
  either being the leading or only flag, it was rejected.

Best,
Alvar
