[1] Semi-arbitrary cutoff, but I didn't want to add every locale directory
used by ports, because a lot are only used by one or two, and it's less
intrusive for these ports to just clean up after themselves.

The code will be fixed for all known security vulnerabilities,
and a make.conf(5) knob (ENABLE_SUID_MAN) will be provided for
those who still want it installed setuid for whatever reasons.
The catpaging and setuidness features of man(1) combined make
it vulnerable to a number of security attacks. Specifically,
it was possible to overwrite system catpages with arbitrarily
contents by either setting up a symlink to a directory holding
system catpages, or by writing custom -mdoc or -man groff(1)
macro packages and setting up GROFF_TMAC_PATH in environment
to point to them. (See PR below for details).
This means man(1) can no longer create system catpages on a
regular user's behalf. (It is still able to if the user has
write permissions to the directory holding catpages, e.g.,
user's own manpages, or if the running user is ``root''.)
To create and install catpages during ``make world'', please
set MANBUILDCAT=YES in /etc/make.conf. To rebuild catpages
on a weekly basis, please set weekly_catman_enable="YES" in
/etc/periodic.conf.
