8081b10e66 Fix man so that it does not allow command line arguments to expand when 
executing apropos or whatis.  This prevents `man -k ';echo foo'` from
executing `echo foo` and causes apropos to print an error message instead.

Ruslan Ermilov
80e770cf63 - Add an OPTIONAL_MANPATH directive (same as MANDATORY_MANPATH, 
except an absence of the directory is not considered an error
  and doesn't produce a warning).
  Put /usr/local/lib/perl5/*/man under OPTIONAL_MANPATH.

- An order of directives in manpath.config is now irrelevant.

- Get rid of infinite loop when PATH is unset or NULL, and
  MANDATORY_MANPATH directory doesn't exist.

- mdoc(9)ify manpage.

7d732d1e4f Bugfix: nested *?+ in regexp at /usr/bin/makewhatis line 286 
Submitted by: invalid opcode <coredump@nervosa.com>

makewhatis.local - start makewhatis(1) only for file systems
                   physically mounted on the system
Running makewhatis from /etc/weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill
your NFS server -- all clients start makewhatis at the same time!
So use this wrapper instead calling makewhatis directly.

edf0e5b3f8 Correct some man page xrefs, and some other minor changes to bring some 
man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.

wakewhatis(1) for us.

03e5b81db4 Rewrite and merge some bogus makefiles to create Makefile.shprog. Just 
include this in the old makefiles.

I intended to fix only the private maninstall rule but found a lot of
other bogons and bugs:
- strong resistance to installing the program anywhere other than
  ${DESTDIR}/usr/bin (first, ../../Makefile.inc was not included.
  ../Makefile/inc was redundantly included instead.  Second, /usr/bin
  was hard coded).
- the owner, group and permissions were hard coded.
- the man page was installed twice.
- MANDEPEND wasn't necessary.
- calculations to determine the obj directory weren't necessary.
- there were unnecessary private rules for depend, rcsfreeze and tags.
  We don't support the rcsfreeze target.
- there was an extra, bogus, rule for `all'.

The final version uses suffix rules to eliminate the remaining verboseness
involving directories (${.CURDIR}) and to potentially allow multiple
shell programs in one directory.

c8a2ad770c Fix broken file name globbing. Man is now also able to find pages 
like "3DBorder" and "[".  (NB, the "3DBorder" problem has actually
been intention, it allowed for weird section names like "3xyzzy".  We
don't have them, either.)

2) Use absolute pathname for nroff
3) Use -Tascii instead -Tlatin1, too many strange chars (like
soft hyphens f.e.) appearse in other case.

01e694c2e2 Wolfram's replacement for the oldish ugly catman(1) program. The new 
one is much more intelligent, not only that it would accept multiple
man page locations, it also behaves like ``make'' in that it will only
deal with cat pages that are out of date (by default).

Wolfram also wrote a man page for it.
