Hello Ralf, Stepan,

quite some time ago I sent an email about a different but somewhat related
problem (together with a very small and simple patch):

When some manpages are present in both the source and build tree, the
automake generated rules install those from the source tree and not those
from the build tree as it should be.

Unfortunately I never got an answer and last time I looked in CVS this bug was
still there.

Couldn't you take care of that problem?
