I had been using MANPATH but to test I removed it from .profile,  
logged out of my shell, opened a new shell and ran "manpath" and /opt/ 
local/share/man was not in my man path. Tried "sudo manpath" and /opt/ 
local/share/man was in my man path.

A quick look shows /opt/local has root:admin and 755 for directories.  
Would this prevent man from operating on /opt/local/share/man?

Maybe because it stores formated results in catx or something? I  
really don't know much about man.
