I've just turned off imake HTML man page generation on Linux to fix a
swag of PLIST problems, now I've hit another issue ;)

mk/defs.Linux.mk says:

IMAKE_MAN_SUFFIX=       1x
IMAKE_MANNEWSUFFIX=     ${IMAKE_MAN_SUFFIX}

on my Slackware 9 box, imake generated man pages are created with the
suffix of the filetype, man -> 1x, libman -> 3x, fileman -> 5x, instead
of all being 1x as the above expects. I noticed this while building
audio/nas.

any ideas how to best handle this?
