It seems that the OpenJDK build installs a man page for javaws,

This only happens on 32-bit platforms, hence why I've never seen it
myself. I've posted a webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/javaws/webrev.01/
which disables the installation when building OpenJDK. If you don't
need this man page for the proprietary installation either, we could
instead just get rid of the man pages and the appropriate lines in
the
Makefile.
Thoughts?
Probably a small oversight that just wasn't noticed before.
It's taken me this long to notice it. If you build on a 64-bit
platform,
you're not going to see it. It seems distros have been silently
deleting
it for a while without bothering to tell upstream :-(
I've
created a bug to track it:
7021314: Build should not install javaws man page
Great. Thanks. I'll await Kelly's review.
Looks ok to me.

The changes in the webrev look right solution to me but I'll leave
it to
Kelly to review.
