The comments for the various BMP flags at lines 175-177 have better
comments at lines 593-600.

In particular, the comment for BMP_FALLBACK_MANDIR at line 177 is the
same used for BMP_APPEND_DIR at 176, which seems wrong somehow.

538          * "man -p" with out operands
s/with out/without/

3191         *p = '\0';

The above seems either redundant or unnecessary given what is already
being done at lines 3166-3177.

Other than that, this looks great. The code was easy to follow, and
quite elegant in my view.

I've been following the discussions on this particular change for some
time now, and feel your are to be commended for this contributions.

I'm really looking forward to never having to set MANPATH again.

Cheers,
