It's not permitted because man is setuid. Can you `su man' from root
and try this?
For reference, I have 1.3.1 with bits of unstable, and:
% dpkg -l man-db
[...]
ii man-db 2.3.10-38 Display the on-line manual.
% ll =man
-rwsr-xr-x 1 man root 71204 May 21 21:40 /usr/bin/man*
% md5sum =man
df908796a4f70b17d294a80ab81dc72c /usr/bin/man
% ldd =man
libdb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libdb.so.1 (0x4000b000)
libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x4001a000)
% man man
