Found it (manpage-filename template in xslt/man/manpage.xsl and the
refentry-filename template in xslt/man/refentry.xsl and a possible fix.
I sent a mail to Steve Cheng to discuss the solution with him. The fix
will be uploaded after we have come to a conclusion. For the meantime,
you can add the attached dpatch patch to a local docbook2x build to test
it.
