man: pipeline, additional questions

Hello

when i tried to examine man page of dpkg i got the following error (not right away but after i scrolled to line 129 or similar):

man: pipeline.c:1671: pipeline_peek_skop: Assertion `len <= p->peek_offset' failed.


I was also wondering about the following:

I read a paper about mach not being the best choice of microkernel for hurd. And I also know that viengoos has been in development for some time.
What I hoped to find on the web was whether it (viengoos) is ment to replace mach if everything goes as expected (if viengoos is part of gnu project).
As i took a look on the git repository of viengoos i found out that there have not been many commits since the beginning of this year, is it still being developed (actively).
Would it be hard to switch from mach to viengoos (when it is ready)? Would it bring difficulties or would it be benefitial?

I know this might sound a bit unrelated to this mailing list.. but i have heard that hurd suffers from difficulties with mach.. i was not able to find much information about this
so i hoped i would find answers here as you all know much more about it.

thanks
Jakub Daniel
