>Description:
	The program that converts the MAKEDEV script into a man page
	is written in some unknown language.  It seem to want to invoke
	something called `perl', but I don't seem to find that in the
	default NetBSD installation. :-)
	There is also no Makefile target to make the man page.
>How-To-Repeat:
	cd share/man/man8
	look around in bewilderment
>Fix:
	Rewrite the program.  Add Makefile target.
