e9d4b22f91 Expand workaround for .so usage to do the chdir call just before
starting parsing, not during the tree iteration. This gives it a chance
to work.

79cdc1651d Be a bit more friendly to man pages using the roff .so command by
changing the current directory to the parent of the man -p entry, e.g.
/usr/share/man for /usr/share/man1.

410d0f4380 Import the new apropos/whatis.
This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.

The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.
