[OpenIndiana-discuss] svc:/system/update-man-index is slow

Most of the time, man indexes don't actually need to be rebuilt. The attached change to /lib/svc/method/update-man-index should (I think) only update the directories (if any) that are not current, so that most of the time, it finishes in a second or so rather than a couple of minutes (less clutter in svcs -xv shortly after system comes up).

If someone wants to review it and if they like it, commit it, that'd be cool.
