Port Manual page missing

[Hezekiah Barnes]

For some reason man isn't searching the paths in man.conf (even tried  
man -C).  Something I've installed at some point must have changed  
this, still not sure where it is looking for MANPATHs.  I was able to  
fix the issue by adding an export for MANPATH in my .profile.  This  
will work better anyway as it will ensure nothing screws up the paths  
again.
