Segmentation fault (man & apropos)

[<tmalloy@escape.com>]

Since last evening I have been getting segmention faults in man and in
apropos.  Can anyone explain to me what that means and how I fix it? Do I
have to reinstall?  I tried running fsck, but that does not seem to have
done anything.  I am not sure what files or output to annex here in order
to provide useful information.
 Before the errors started I had been fiddling around trying to figure out
how to send a fax from debian.  I had created a sybolic link /dev/fax ->
/dev/ttyS1.  I had looked at and edited some files /etc/efax.rc.  I was
not succesful in my efforts.  Then I decided to take a break and adjust my
system clock for daylight savings time. ( an odd americam custom) Not
being sure how to do this I typed "apropos time".  This is when the first
segmentation fault occured.  All of the actions described were proformed
while logged in as root.  I don't know if my prior actions have any
relation to the errors, but have included them just in case.  Any
assistance is greatly appreciated.  Thank you
