Can this function be deleted from man.el and calls to it be replaced by
calls to match-string?
(defsubst Man-match-substring (&optional n string)
"Return the substring matched by the last search.
Optional arg N means return the substring matched by the Nth paren
grouping. Optional second arg STRING means return a substring from
that string instead of from the current buffer."
(if (null n) (setq n 0))
(if string
(substring string (match-beginning n) (match-end n))
(buffer-substring (match-beginning n) (match-end n))))
