When I installed Openwin, I set OPENWINHOME to /usr....
That way the man pages went into /usr/man, the lib's went into /usr/lib,
the bin's went into /usr/bin, the includes went into /usr/include,
the fonts went into /usr/lib/font, etc....      It also eliminated the
need for MANPATH, FONTPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc...
