/usr/sbin/makewhatis of sys-apps/man-1.5p does not create 'whatis' files for
0p, 1p and 3p section.
I think 'sections' variable of /usr/sbin/makewhatis should be similar to
'MANSECT' of /etc/man.conf, which includes '0p', '1p' and '3p' (and 'tcl', 'p'
and 'o').

man-1.6a-makewhatis.patch

try this patch ... makewhatis hard codes the sections rather than using
man.conf, but this patch fixes that
