Package: manpages-dev
Version: 3.05-1
Severity: normal

The nftw manual page says to define _XOPEN_SOURCE but ftw.h from glibc
2.7 in lenny and glibc 2.9 in sid uses __USE_XOPEN_EXTENDED. This leads
to code that uses nftw failing to build. No idea which one is correct
according to the standards, but the manual page should not give advice
that does not work.
