saying that -b and -l create smaller files can be misleading - the author

was probably thinking of the fact that files created would be smaller than
the original file split; instead, just say that they create files.

this comes from freebsd pr#119329, submitted by Julian Stacey.
his fix was to introduce the notion of "split files", but the idea of
"create split files" can be just as confusing, so i've gone with removing
the original, ambiguous, adjective.
