[Bug 1488939] [NEW] kill -L behaviour (is it a doc or code error?)

 

Public bug reported:

$man kill
[...]
       -L, --table
              List signal names in a nice table.
[...Examples section]
       kill -L
              List the available signal choices in a nice table.

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

I'm not sure if it is a doc or code error, but the actual behaviour is
not what the doc describes...
