Summary

Commit 7c5146da1286 modified mountd so that it uses
strunvis(3) to decode directory names in exports lines.
This allows special characters, such as blanks, to be
encoded in the directory names.

This patch updates the exports.5 man page for this change.

I hadn't heard of "imbedded"; apparently "embedded" is much more common.

Approved with s/imbedded/embedded/ throughout.

Yep, I'll change it. google (not surprisingly) gave
multiple responses for "imbed vs embed". Most said
imbed was a less common spelling, but a couple
stated that imbed was a past tense version.

Anyhow, it seems embedded works for everyone,
so I will go with that.

rmacklem marked an inline comment as done.

Changed imbedded to embedded as suggested by others.
I also changed a "for" to a "to", which was just a typo.
