The 'man -wa' case will be fixed by man-db 2.5.4 (this is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=496172), but the whatis case is unfortunately separate. I'll add this to my stack of things to look at upstream.

wget could "fix" this by lower-casing its name in the NAME section of its manual page, but I don't think it should have to. This is a bug in man-db.

(Sorry I didn't see this sooner.)
