`man -a fc-list` first displays the new manpage, then, after pressing
'q', it offers to display the old one.

Indeed, it displays both! I've completely missed that since I simply
used the END key to jump to the bottom for checking the manpage
version. Sorry for the noise.
HOWEVER: That man pages are displayed in succession without any
structural aid is subobtimal. The attached image shows the transition
from the older to the newer man page – this is hardly noticeable while
scrolling fast. Would it be possible that `info` constructs a menu,
something like
```
* Menu
* foo(1) (from '/usr/local/share/man/man1')
* foo(5) (from '/usr/local/share/man/man5')
* foo(1) (from '/usr/share/man/man1')
* foo(5) (from '/usr/share/man/man5')
```
and positioning the cursor at the first hit so that the user only has
to press ENTER a second time to get the default? BTW, this menu could
be even extended for manpages from other locales (in case this is easy
to get, since 'man -a' doesn't deliver them), or at least from the
locale 'C' in addition to the current one.
