bug#14846: dd how to skip one byte from reading the man page

If the user tries to figure out how to skip one byte
just from reading the dd man page, and not info,

in order to finally figure out how to do

$ echo abc|dd ibs=1 skip=1
bc

it seems
       ibs=BYTES
              read up to BYTES bytes at a time (default: 512)
should be instead
       ibs=BYTES
              reset the input block size (default: 512)
or something...
