Hi, all...

Since some time ago, many man pages seem broken, there is some missing
pieces of text.

Finally I think I've got a pettern: mulitple equal letters are collapsed
in bold text (like section titles in man pages...).

Some examples:

werewolf:~> man ksymoops
KSYMOOPS(8)                                           KSYMOOPS(8)

NAME
       ksymoops - a utility to decode Linux kernel Oops

SYNOP
       ksymops     <=== this is bold & wrong !!!!!

werewolf:~> man mlockall
MLOCKALL(2)         Linux Programmer's Manual         MLOCKALL(2)

NAME
       mlockall - disable paging for calling process

SYNOP
       #include </man.h>

       int mlockal(int flags);

werewolf:~> man yacc
YACC(1)                                                   YACC(1)

NAME
       Yacc - an LALR(1) parser generator

SYNOP
       yac  [  -dlrtv  ] [ -b file_prefix ] [ -p symbol_prefix ]
       filename

DESCRIPTION
       Yac reads the grammar specification in the file  filename


I tried with "es" and "C" locales, and on several terms (rxvt, xterm,
gnome-terminal), even on console. So it is not a terminal problem
(I think).

Hope this gives some clue...

TIA
