Subject: Man reading problem

I am using GNU Emacs 22.1.1 part of SuSE Linux 10.3 x86_64. I canot read 
the complete man page for udev as the buffer ends after the line "The 
following keys can get values assigned:

A fragment of the udev.7 file is
...
The following keys can get values assigned:
.PP
\fBNAME\fR
.RS 4
...

Replacing \fBNAME\fR by almost anything eg. \fBNAMF\fR cures the problem
but obviously prints NAMF rather than NAME.

The man page displays in full when invoked in a terminal with man.

Looks like a bug but appreciate your view.

Regards,
Enno Fennema
