    man: Exit cleanly on SIGPIPE.
    
    The first attempt at addressing this simply suppressed SIGPIPE, which
    resulted in mandoc printing out error messages instead.  This was then
    reverted, but the pipefail was (correctly) left in, so man still
    returned a nonzero exit code if you quit a page before the end.
