remove `share` from `MANDIR` - on OpenBSD the man should end up at `/usr/local/man/man1/rdrview.1`
`makewhatis` is run via cron weekly on OpenBSD, until then invoking `man rdrview` works but produces: `man: outdated mandoc.db lacks rdrview(1) entry, run makewhatis /usr/local/man` Downsides of this commit: * makewhatis takes a lot of time * `uname -s` is run again, `$(SYSTEM)` not used * I am not sure wheter other platforms need makewhatis or not * I am not sure it is good practice to put makewhatis into `install` and `uninstall`

Hi, sorry for the delay again. I'm picking up your patch for the man page path (thanks!), but I'm not so sure about the makewhatis stuff. I'm guessing it's normal to just let that happen by itself. |

I guess I can close this as it is. Feel free to reopen if you disagree. |
