I did upgrade from Tiger via Archive and install
I don't have man pages for xattr (but it's not a problem, since xattr -
h will give you all info you need)
but I do have proper ls man page: it has information about @
solution Daniel Korn provided didn't help
I still don't have xattr page

That's true, unless the man pages are out of sync, which is often
the case when upgrading from Tiger to Leopard, especially if you
already had Xcode installed under Tiger.
So, I don't think it's fair for everyone to admonish Rob with "RTFM"
when he did indeed look at the man pages, and they were wrong,
through no fault of his own. It's Apple's bug, and it's one of
those things that you don't know is wrong until you run into an
issue like this.
This issue with the outdated man pages bit me as well. The solution
to is not necessarily as extreme as archiving and re-installing
everything. I followed the instructions at the end of this page:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20071201021830891
Specifically:
sudo mkdir /usr/share/man/old
sudo find /usr/share/man -type f -exec test -e {}.gz \; -exec mv
{} /usr/share/man/old \;
sudo find /usr/share/man -type l -exec test -e {}.gz \; -exec mv
{} /usr/share/man/old \;
After doing this, I see the proper Leopard man pages.
