I'll do that next time, but your explanation doesn't really say why it only happens sometimes (I don't think I changed $MANPATH), or why it works when run from the shell with the same args as taken from the ps output?
Manpath does nothing if $MANPATH is set. I think aaa_base unset $MANPATH in the system profile so the manpath program gets activated. If it hangs randomly for you, I don't have an idea though.
