On Debian, the patch is a noop. I see no difference in the generated
shadow man pages. That would mean that what asciidoc or xmlto generates
is different on Solaris.

The screen output of the test .so man page I used, after erasing *.man
and *.3 and applying the patch:

         cd .. && /bin/bash /home/nadon/xorg/src/lib/libXi/missing --run automake-1.11 --foreign man/Makefile
         cd .. && /bin/bash ./config.status man/Makefile

        Warn: meta author : no author data, so inserted a fixme            XListInputDevices

        Note: Writing XFreeDeviceList.libmansuffix (soelim stub)
        mv -f XListInputDevices.libmansuffix XListInputDevices.man
        mv -f XFreeDeviceList.libmansuffix XFreeDeviceList.man

        	< XFreeDeviceList.man > XFreeDeviceList.3
        rm XListInputDevices.xml

The content of the .man and .3 files:

        .so manlibmansuffix/XListInputDevices.libmansuffix
        .so man3/XListInputDevices.3

I attached the generated xml file in case.

        I use asciidoc 8.6.3 and xmlto 0.0.23
        xsltproc --version
        Using libxml 20708, libxslt 10126 and libexslt 815
        xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20708, libxslt 10126 and libexslt 815
        libxslt 10126 was compiled against libxml 20708
        libexslt 815 was compiled against libxml 20708
