xman doesn't work. It looks for man pages by first searching MANPATH
if it's there, /usr/man if it's there, and /etc/man.conf if it's there.
However, on OS X, MANPATH isn't normally defined by any shell scripts,
/usr/man doesn't exist, and /etc/man.conf doesn't exist (although the
directory /etc/manpath.config does exist). The best solution I can
think of is to create my own ~/.xinitrc and define MANPATH before
launching quartz-wm. But I'm open to other ideas. Thoughts?
This bug was fixed in the xfree86 sources 5 months ago. So it should go
away as soon as Apple pick up a contemporary source base.
