I'm the one that created that message and the mkindex script.

Next question first...

Funny you should say that.  I spent enough brain cells on the task,
myself, that I thought I would put it in a script and share it with
folks. I called the script "mkindex", and that message refers to it
by it's full installed path, usually "/usr/pkg/libexec/mkindex".

I doubt that the message could be any clearer. The script could be
better--for example, to only add paths to the index which contain
"man?" directories.  Feel free to suggest specific changes.
