Not an Emacs issue. Buggy man page, since fixed upstream.

M-x man now just prints e.g.,

gdalinfo(1)                                                        gdalinfo(1)

NAME
       gdalinfo - .TH "gdalinfo" 1 "Thu Feb 24 2011" "GDAL"

and that is it, on some man pages. On others e.g., man cat, man who, all
is well.
