+In progress:
+
+* store .so link in the db.
+* reduce wasted/duplicated text stored within the databases.
+ 10-20% database size reduction so far.
+* pipeline library:
+ - make COMMAND_FUNCTION child reentrant, so it doesn't have to be a
+ subprocess; will save lots of forks of zlib children in mandb
+
+In need of attention:
+
+* clear up the use of troff and/or groff
+* complete configuration file redesign to allow better dynamic determination
+ of programs/paths/extensions etc.
+* multiple debug levels?
+
+Case-insensitive lookup transition:
+
+* Solaris layout is broken.
+* Need to make sure pointers trigger an exact-case lookup [done for whatis].
