 Doh! ... the problem was between chair and keyboard. i used alternate DESTDIR
 with the make all and make install but with quick.-install-man i forgot to set

 Sorry for the wasted time ...

 After correcting the above
 $ grep -R "\.ft" *
 man3/private-Error.3pm:.ft CW
 man3/private-Error.3pm:.ft R
 man3/Git.3pm:.ft CW
 man3/Git.3pm:.ft R
 
 Which are probably letfovers from previous builds ...

 For the sake of completeness
  $ ps ax | grep man
    585 ?        S<     0:00 [kondemand]
   4994 ?        S      0:00 gnome-power-manager
  32649 pts/2    S+     0:00 man git-commit
  32690 pts/4    S+     0:00 grep man
