Hmm.  The behaviour of man-db is to look in /lang/ directory only.  My patch
allows to look in /lang_TERRITORY.ENCODING,VERSION/ as well as into
intermediate (wrt to the full locale name set on the computer) directories.  If
you do not think it's needed, just leave it alone. :)  It also corrects the way
LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and LANG variables are processed.  Which is important. :)
