Kick MANPATH out of the book

The man program automatically deduce a good default from PATH, thus no
need to set MANPATH as long as the corresponding PATH component is
added.

     351        <para>
     352          The <command>man</command> program automatically deduce the search
     353          path for man pages by examing the content of the
     354          <envar>PATH</envar> variable, see
     355          <ulink role='man' url='&man;manpath.5'>manpath(5)</ulink> for
     356          details.  Setting the <envar>MANPATH</envar> variable may override
     357          the automatic deduction, so the BLFS editors do not recommend to
     358          set it.  If you must set it for any reason, it's better to start
     359          its value with a colon (<literal>:</literal>), for example
     360          <command>MANPATH=:/opt/somepkg/share/man:/opt/otherpkg/share/man</command>
     361          so the paths listed in the <envar>MANPATH</envar> variable will
     362          be appended to the automatically deduced value instead of
     363          overriding it.
