Hi Claudio,
Thanks for the report.
I didn't notice it when I tested on Solaris 10
because I used the "fmt" from coreutils.
When I use the solaris version I see the same problem:
$ echo a b c|/bin/fmt -w1
fmt: bad width: 0
[Exit 1]
$ echo a b c|/bin/fmt -w 1
a
b
c
Inserting a space fixes it:

Subject: [PATCH] tests: avoid "make check" failure with Solaris 10's "fmt"
* man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Use "fmt -w 1", not "fmt -w1",
since the latter fails on Solaris 10 with "fmt: bad width: 0".
Reported by Claudio Fontana.
