Backout these changes (revert man.c back to the revision 1.38). 2. No additional patch is required to look into en.ISO_8859-1 for all en_*.ISO_8859-1 locales, man(1) is already smart enough, see the /usr/bin/env LANG=en_US.ISO_8859-1 man -d command output. 3. Make /usr/share/man/en.ISO_8859-1 created by default with cat? subdirectories. 4. Symlink the man? subdirectories with the /usr/share/man/man? ones. The 3) and 4) could be implemented by a simple patch to BSD.usr.dist. So, do you want me to do the job?
