From where did you donwload your last version ?

IMHO, Redhat's `man' SRPM has some excellent patches which serve to make it more i18n friendly, fix a few things here and there, and resolves a few FHS issues. I think it would be well worth investigating. I'd suggest picking up the latest SRPM from http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/.

Cheers,
Nicholas
