Hi,

we are coming close to enabling mandocdb(8) and the new apropos(1)
in OpenBSD, so now is a good time to switch back to the traditional
names.  (When Theo asked why we want to invent a new name,
i couldn't come up with any good reason.  File formats get changed
all the time without inventing new nomenclature.)

OK?
  Ingo

Ingo, ok with me.  I'll change the other utilities when you check this 
in (catman.c, cgi.c, neither of which use the macros).

Thanks!
