clone 608179
reassign -1 file
retitle -1 file: Fails to identify some man pages correctly
block 608179 -1
kthxbye

Clearly this used to work in the past. Putting the block in place so the bugs 
are linked, but clearly we can bodge around this. If we're going to bodge, 
though, it's probably more useful to look at the man page and figure out how to 
tune it to make file happy as that's likely to involve figuring out the 
ultimate bug with file.

In any case, I'll look at this tomorrow.
