Known problem. Bug ID# 3470748
Weekly maintenance task: Can't find file: /usr/share/man/man3/ symbolic links

Reviewing the weekly.log, I find that it had a problem finding files in
/usr/share/man/man3/ that had symbolic links. I attempted to find the files
and get this back: The alias "insert file name with symbolic link" could
not be opened, because the original item cannot be found. So all the files
listed in the below weekly.out under whatis database rebuild don't exist or
the links are hosed.
