Hmmm, which documentation was that, and how could it be fixed?

The current (CVS) coreutils manual says:

 `-g'
    Produce long format directory listings, but don't display owner information.

and "ls --help" says:

 -g                         like -l, but do not list owner

If that's not clear, then what would be clearer?
