ive looked through the build system and i dont think there is a simple
way to disable man pages altogether ?  i think a new option to
configure would be appropriate:
--with-manpage-format=none
or something similar

what do you think ?

the reason i ask is that ncurses often gets integrated into embedded
building systems and the step to run sed/install/etc... man pages is
actually a bit time consuming ... since i only care about
building/installing the library and a few programs, any extraneous
documentation is just going to be thrown away.  atm i'm patching it
out in the man Makefile ...
