I'm looking at 7.1/i386...

Man page for man.conf(5) claims "_whatdb" to be the name of the apropos db.
However, /etc/man.conf actually includes a reference to "_mandb".

ISTR _whatdb was working on 6.1 but haven't yet tested _whatdb vs. _mandb
on a 7.1 system.  Can someone more knowledgeable comment and indicate
whether or not man page needs to be updated vs. the configuration file,
itself?
