It's probably a dangling link to a man page...
Try this , see if it shows up
ls -lR /usr/local/man |grep -- "->"
ls -lR /usr/man |grep -- "->"
makewhatis reads the topof each man page to build a sumamry, it can get
slightly confused when a man page is really a symlink to another page, but
the target page doesn't exist ...
[expn.8 is the man page for a mail utility]
