I noticed that if I (as swallace) made the directory

~/misc/testman/man

and filled it with a mantree, leaving only user(swallace) rx permissions,
I would not be able to read the file with the setuid man /usr/bin/man
program.  After I chmod g+x ~/misc/testman (all dirs up to and including
testman exec perm enabled), it will work.

Something is the matter here.

Steven
