This has probably been up before but...
Index: /usr/src/etc/catman.c
Description:
As distributed catman(8) does not know about /usr/man/manl and
/usr/man/mann. The following is a fix to make catman recognize manl
and mann. Catman calls /usr/lib/makewhatis so makewhatis should
also be updated.
There is a bug in /usr/lib/makewhatis: makewhatis calls /bin/ed.
/bin/ed may run out of space if there are to many manual entries.
This is easily fixed by using /usr/ucb/ex instead of /bin/ed.
Fix:
