Default Viewing manpages: Headers and footers get repeated.

A "screenshot" from ls(1)

Code:
     D       The entry is a door.


     l       The entry is a symbolic link.




SunOS 5.11          Last change: 10 Feb 2009                    1






User Commands                                               ls(1)



     b       The entry is a block special file.


     c       The entry is a character special file.

The headers/footers get repeated, like man/troff is trying to output to a pages media.

This is really getting on my nerves ...
