Then get writing!  I'm bet gcc would accept a C language syntax page.

However, like I said, it would probably need to be a single C syntax
page.  That's the way perl does it for example.

I don't think any other language has individual man pages for
syntactical elements.  Otherwise, you end up with massive conflicts; who
gets the man page for "{", "+", ";", etc.?
