 Apologies for casting a stain on bash - it's actually a man-1.6d
problem, although I've only so far seen it on x86_64-64.   There is
a missing ')' on line 263 - the relevant part of the diff from 1.6d
to 1.6e is below:

 Any readers using x86_64-64 ('pure64') clfs-1.0.0 are invited to
test 'makewhatis' and edit it if they have the problem.
