Done for the future man-db 2.5.4:
Fri Dec 5 13:52:14 GMT 2008 Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Make it possible to override man's default of discarding stderr when
stdout is a terminal (Debian bug #480996).
* src/man.c (discard_stderr): Make static.
(maybe_discard_stderr): New function, checking MAN_KEEP_STDERR.
(format_display_and_save, format_display, display_catman): Use
maybe_discard_stderr.
* man/man1/man.man1 (ENVIRONMENT): Document this.
