The man(7) man page describes this as "the
section number the man page should be placed in (e.g.,

["Library calls (functions within program libraries)"]; otherwise, we
default to using 1 ["Executable programs or shell
commands"].
The first refname in the refentry
If non-zero, no "missing" message is emitted
