[Bug 1065972] [NEW] Man page of command "kill" is wrong

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

`man kill` gives:

	kill [ -L | -V, --version ]
	...
	Use -l or -L to list available signals.
	...
	kill -L
	  List the available signal choices in a nice table.
	...
	STANDARDS
	  This command meets appropriate standards. The -L flag is Linux-specific.

Man page shortened above for space reasons.

When I try to give `kill` the `-L` parameter I get:

	$ kill -L
	bash: kill: L: invalid signal specification

So it seems that `-L` is not implemented?
