Nope, we are currently the only people using that code as far as I know.
They abandoned it a long time ago because (in their words) 'man pages'
are outdated and are now replaced by the much better 'info' docs.  I
don't necessarily agree with it, but that's irrelevant.  We need to fix
the problem since they aren't going to.
