In 6.0 and 6.1 there are many man pages that are formatted so that they are
not read properly by man -k. Here are some that are in 6.1C.
(edited output from the union of
man -M /usr/man -k 'e'
and
man -M /usr/man -k 's'
)
I chose
(1) anything which had *roff formatting commands in the text
(2) anything which had a period (".") after the description
(in the name of consistency, since most man pages do not
have a period at the end of the line)
(3) games (they are not in the release)
