M-x man now just prints e.g.,

gdalinfo(1)                                                        gdalinfo(1)

NAME
       gdalinfo - .TH "gdalinfo" 1 "Thu Feb 24 2011" "GDAL"

and that is it, on some man pages. On others e.g., man cat, man who, all
is well.

Gentlemen, this man page is defective.

.TH "gdalinfo" 1 "Thu Feb 24 2011" "GDAL" \" -*- nroff -*-
.ad l
.nh
.SH NAME
gdalinfo \- .TH "gdalinfo" 1 "Thu Feb 24 2011" "GDAL" \" -*- nroff -*-
.ad l
.nh

It makes

NAME
       gdalinfo - .TH "gdalinfo" 1 "Thu Feb 24 2011" "GDAL"

NAME
       gdalinfo - lists information about a raster dataset
etc.

What is worse, GNU Emacs M-x Man can't deal with it almost at all!

Not an Emacs issue. Buggy man page, since fixed upstream.
