   It seems however that it was decided to change the style of man page
   filenames between R2 and R3.   R2, files were named, for instance,
   XDrArc.3X  while for R3 the name XDrArc.3X11 is used.  Also, the
   Xt man pages are named  XtAddCbk.3Xt 

   At least on ULTRIX 2.3, these man pages are not found.  My experience
   is that they must have only two character extensions beyond the dot.

   Anyway, has anyone else seen this?
     and	did you simply rename all of them as 3X?
     or	is their a sweeter solution?

I had the same problem on my SunOS3.4 machine.  I renamed them to *.3.
