/usr/etc/zwgc doesn't work if the MANPATH variable isn't first set to /usr/man

When I try logging on a VAX-station, everything works fine. But when I
log in on an RT I get the message:

	main.c: Bad address Setting Location

right after the window manager starts but before Xclock is called.  I
also get a window:

		      @b[pfkrause] unkown opcode
			     on @b[SENT]
				  at

Which I assume is being caused by an undeleviable zwrite.  At some
point after this (maybe much later) the work station hangs and must be
rebooted.
