I am on PESTO, a dialup DECStation.
Using the standard athena_path, the man programs appear in the following
order:

/usr/athena/bin/man
/usr/ucb/man
/usr/bin/man

However, there is no manpage for man in /usr/athena/bin/man.  `man man'
shows a manpage which explains the operation of /usr/ucb/man and
/usr/bin/man, and does not indicate whether /usr/athena/bin/man will
behave like either one of these.

There should be a /usr/athena/man/man1/man.1 which explains the behavior
of /usr/athena/bin/man.
