3509	man invocation not portable	petere	andrew_b	"The invocation of man in misc/ext.d/text.sh.in is not portable.  BSD man commands do not take the -l option to show a man page by file name.  (Instead, just give the file name, no option necessary.)

As a result, viewing man pages with mc does not work on these platforms.

Distributions are working around that:

* https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/pull/42176
* https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/misc/mc/files/patch-misc__ext.d__text.sh.in?view=markup&pathrev=382039
