The way this made it into the actual tree was to call /usr/bin/man, but 
still using execlp().  This is clearly bogus.  There *ARE* good reasons 
to use PATH resolutions for this, since man is one of the interactive 
commands the user may want to wrapper.

So please drop PATH_TO_MAN that made it into the repository and revert 
to the original patch.
