From the keyboard of jtc@motcad.portal.com (J.T. Conklin):
:If I remember correctly, someone posted a perl script that checked
:the "SEE ALSO" portions of a set of man pages, to see if they were
:consistant.

You may be thinking of my cfman program.  It's one of the auxiliary tools
in my man package, which you can get via anon FTP from 
    convex:/pub/man.shar.Z 
if you're on the Internet.  My current patchlevel is PL40 on man.  I
haven't done any new work on cfman for a long time.
