isaacs/npm — Issue #1802: Man files are missing after clean 1.6.3 .pkg install

I removed old node and npm, then installed new 1.6.3 with the .pkg-file on nodejs.org.

Typing `npm` or `npm help` or `npm man` all result in:

$ npm
npm ERR! Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/man/man1/'

Here are the additions from the log-file:
