funny-manpages has an RC bug, but it seems that it'll be impossible to fix.
There's no copyright information and there are lots of authors -
some of whom are anonymous and most of whom wrote them on Usenet over 15 years
ago. I've tried contacting the authors for permission (well, some of them) and
I only got one response. It was from RMS, and he refused to license his joke
manpages under a DFSG-compatible license.

You can see some of my efforts at copyright permission in the bug:
