Hi Matthias, All the extra info (i.e. line number and error description) of the manpage-has-errors-from-man check is generated by man itself. It is very likely the bug is in man and not in the way lintian is running it. (CC'ing Colin so that he can help check where's the bug)
I tried but failed to reproduce the issue with gfortran-4.5_4.5-20091223-1_i386.deb. Is the package where you got this error publicly accessible somewhere?
