[Bug 1319219] [NEW] db5.3-util has incorrect man pages filenames

Public bug reported: db5.3-util currently has man pages installed as db5.2_name instead of db5.3_name. This breaks man page symlinks in db-util and is very confusing: e.g. neither man db_stat nor man db5.3_stat work, and you need to run man db5.2_stat. Looks like man pages haven't been updated
