When doing a `man man` you now get the option of what manpage you see.
In the past this was not the case. I tried looking up how to create the
old behaviour, but could not find it. Anybody an idea?

I also looked in man man and in /etc/manpath.config and found nothing. I
think it was once explained in a release note, but found again nothing.

for code. You've gotta tell them. You've gotta tell them!

Funny you mentioned "hats on".

That seems to be a common behavior in all the 29 countries I've been
driving in :)

The male ones with their hats on are very predictable though.
Sigh. Even too predictable.

But then again, the females with their hats on.
They are hundred per cent unpredictable. Everywhere.

Not in the UK!
Having dragged this thread off-topic, I'll pull my woolly hat on (its
cold out there), abandon the thread and drive off into the distance.
