Hi there,

It's missing because it wasn't included in the 0.9.3 tarball by upstream:

[ankur@dhcppc1  rtorrent(f17=)]$ tar -tvf rtorrent-0.9.3.tar.gz | egrep "doc"
drwxr-xr-x rakshasa/staff      0 2012-10-24 16:36 rtorrent-0.9.3/doc/
-rw-r--r-- rakshasa/staff     27 2012-06-27 16:42 rtorrent-0.9.3/doc/Makefile.am
-rw-r--r-- rakshasa/staff  11066 2012-10-24 00:37 rtorrent-0.9.3/doc/Makefile.in
-rw-r--r-- rakshasa/staff   2725 2012-10-24 16:35 rtorrent-0.9.3/doc/rtorrent.rc
[ankur@dhcppc1  rtorrent(f17=)]$

If you read the git history of Makefile.am:
http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/browser/trunk/rtorrent/doc/Makefile.am

It says "don't include out of date man page".

Closing as wontfix, unless you can provide an up to date man page to upstream and request them to include it in the next tar release :)
