            Bug ID: 223558
           Summary: man -w wants to read data from stdin
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: wosch at FreeBSD.org

I tried to run `man -w cat’ for a directory where there is only a catpage. Then
I got a strange error message, apparently man wants to open /dev/stdin with
gzip/zcat

How to repeat:

$ mkdir man man/man1 man/cat1
$ man cat | gzip > man/cat1/cat.1.gz
$ man -M man -w cat
zcat: standard input is a terminal -- ignoring
man/cat1/cat.1.gz (source: )
