>Description:
	PR1062 and PR1168 complain that makewhatis fails to find 
unformatted man files, and that makewhatis lacks a man page.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
# This is a shell archive.  Save it in a file, remove anything before
# this line, and then unpack it by entering "sh file".  Note, it may
# create directories; files and directories will be owned by you and
# have default permissions.
#
# This archive contains:
#
#	makewhatis
#	makewhatis.8
#	makewhatis-man.sed
