There is no *the* gtk man page.  While the documentation is
written/generated in DocBook which permits generation of man page output
format and a bugzila enhancement request exists

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467488

for man page generation by gtk-doc, the ready-to-read format is HTML.

And I doubt Gtk+ will start distributing man pages in addition to HTML
as man pages do not seem suitable for documentation of this extent and
structure (you cannot link to a specific part of a man page, for
example).

So, use devhelp to read the HTML.
