Did you try the online manuals?  I just did 'man libsphere' and got a
reasonable looking man page.  We don't reprint hardcopy manuals at maintenance
releases (such as 3.3.1) because of the cost.

This is either a huge compliment to the developers working on release 4.0 or
a nasty slam at our hotline.  I prefer to think its the former since our
hotline has an excellent reputation.
