>Description:
	If there is more than one manual entry for an argument and
	the second one is stored as a gzipped file, it will be
	displayed without being uncompressed.

>How-To-Repeat:
	su
	gzip /usr/share/man/cat8/config.*
	man config
	# references config(8) and config.new(8)
	# but config.new will be displayed still
	# gzipped, ie as binary.
