Subject:	man problems - how to get a pre 1.5g-2 binary?

Since January I have the following problems with man:

If I use 1.5g-2, it finds all pages in the manpath, but renders the troff
with lots of ugly Esc[^...

If I use 1.5j-1, the pages it finds are rendered nicely, but it doesn't find
the pages in the directories I added myself to the manpath.

Anybody knows the solution to this?

Or (since it worked fine before Jan 2003) - how can I get an older binary on
http://www.cygwin.com - perhaps this will bring me back to the 2002 state of
"man" just working like I expect it to?

Typically I use to first download to local drive and then install from
there, but it appears that I didn't for this part...

Many thanks for any hints in advance!
