Hello,
	I'm setting up local man pages on an Ultrix system.  Ideally,
I would want to put them in /usr/local/man, but DEC's man(1) doesn't
handle multiple paths.  And if I put them in /usr/man (e.g.  localprog.1l)
you have to type "man 1l localprog" to get any info!  I've tried to compile
Berkleys man.c (which does support mult. paths via MANPATH or -M), but I
could not get it to work.  Please help...Ross.
