To show a man page (e.g. when there is no info file) this program uses
man -w -W <name> but option -W is unsupported by our man(1).

This results in:

$ pinfo man
man: BADARG: bad command line argument: -W man
Error executing command 'man -w -W  man'

and the terminal is left in a broken state.

Fix by applying this PR: baszoetekouw/pinfo#36
