Hey Thomas,

How is this supposed to work?  I have the feeling the problem the
submitter is really talking about is still there.

man 3menu menu_new:

yes - I don't recall noticing this before (I was probably thinking it
was the same as another report where the manpage contained exactly one
function).  In this case, I see that the third line of the file isn't
being touched by the script (probably because the \fB conflicts):

.TH mitem_new 3X ""
.SH NAME
\fBmitem_new\fR - create and destroy menu items


menu_new(3MENU)

NAME
      mitem_new - create and destroy menu items


man 3menu new:

new(3MENU)

NAME
      menu_new - create and destroy menus

That's pretty confusing... and I'm not sure why they're renamed in this
particular way, either - maybe the mitem_* manpages should be left as
mitem_new(3menu), etc.?

I suppose so (that's a different issue - I haven't had anything to do with
the selection of names for man_db.renames, just trying to make the scripting work).
