I agree it makes no sense if it's just set to the defaults, but for example I have: /opt/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/share/man/4.4BSD:/usr/share/man/BSDI-3.0:/home/S/pdp11/Archive/Trees/V7/usr/man:/home/S/pdp11/Archive/Trees/V6/usr/man:/home/S/pdp11/3bsd/usr/man:/T/src/2.11BSD/man:/usr/share/man/IRIX-5.3/u_man:/usr/share/man/IRIX-5.3/p_man:/usr/share/man/IRIX-5.3/a_man:/usr/share/man/IRIX-5.3/g_man:/usr/share/man/ISC-3.2/p_man:/usr/share/man/ISC-3.2/u_man:/usr/share/man/NonStop-UX-B23:/usr/share/man/NonStop-UX-C10:/usr/share/man/SCO-3.2.2:/usr/share/man/SCO-3.5.0:/usr/share/man/SVR4.2:/usr/share/man/Solaris-2.5:/usr/share/man/SunOS-4.1.3:/usr/share/man/Xenix-2.3.2 Obviously I can't get that any other way.
