Be aware, though, that that patch leads to severe regressions in eshell
(and sometimes in shell mode, too) -- you need f1fa35f0914f to fix that
problem.

And I'm not 100% sure about the fix in f1fa35f0914f, so backporting
these two things to Emacs 27 is out of scope, I think.  (We're only
fixing regressions in Emacs 27 now, and this man.el problem was also
present in Emacs 26, if I remember correctly.)  So this won't be fixed
in Emacs 27, but is fixed in Emacs 28, and I'm closing this bug report.
