The udev man page has a passage,
The following keys can get values assigned:
NAME
The name of the node to be created, or the name the network interface
whereupon Man Narrow mode thinks it found a new page and one needs M-n
to get to the rest of the page.

I haven't been able to reproduce this at all. M-x man RET udev RET
displays the
entire udev manpage, with no anomalies. I can't seem to find the Man Narrow
mode referred to in the message in the Emacs source tree.
Please give a precise testcase if you want this worked on.

Happens for me, with udev version 0.098-2.
Looks like Man-first-heading-regexp allows whitespace before NAME.
Could that occur when man prints to a tty (I'm guessing it might put
some left margin when going to a line printer)?

Can you send a precise recipe? What I do is
emacs -q
M-x man RET udev RET
C-x o
n n n n n n or C-n repeatedly
This scrolls through the udev manpage, reaching the botton without any
trouble.

Yes, that's enough (though I did emacs -Q).

C-n or C-v stop at
The following keys can get values assigned:
and you have to do M-n to see the next page. It probably happens on
any page with a ".TP NAME" in a list.
