I note (with some ire!) that the profile.d snippet in the latest Java
instructions includes the line:

   pathappend ${JAVA_HOME}/man MANPATH

This completely screws setting the MANPATH using /etc/man.conf, as
normally setup by an LFS installation.  Setting any MANPATH envar, as
Jeremy Utley pointed out to me in another place, masks the
/etc/man.conf's MANPATH setting.

The correct (better, other...)  way to do this is to uncomment 

   MANPATH  /opt/*/man

in /etc/man.conf,  n'est pas?
