B20.1: problem with the man command

Subject: B20.1: problem with the man command

Hello.

I have just updated my installation of cygwin.
Now I encountered a problem with the man command.
Here is an example of the output

	BASH.EXE-2.04$ man ls
	Error executing formatting or display command.
	System command (cd /usr/man ; (echo -e ".pl 1100i"; cat
/usr/man/man1/ls.1; echo
	 ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/bin/groff -Tascii -mandoc |
less -is) ex
	ited with status 32512.
	No manual entry for ls
	BASH.EXE-2.04$

The file /usr/man/man1/ls.1 exists.
It does that for any commands.
I have just check the FAQ and the mail archive, without success.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix that problem ?


Thanks 

Frederic Darboux

PS: 
I am using Windows 98 second edition
Below is the report of the command cygcheck -s -v -r (just in case...).
