Dired 7.5 bug: xemacs man browser is broken - fix included

the man pages browser was without specific menus and point-and-click
hyperlinks to the referenced manpages

the man pages browser in  xemacs is apparently designed to work with buffers
managed by view-less.

apparently, view-less.el is loaded/required by xemacs dired, or it is
autoloaded in some place, who knows... in place of view.el.

this scheme was broken after i loaded efs/dired7.5, as i found that
the view mode used by xemacs is the one provided by the file view.el

i have a (require 'dired) line in my .emacs file, so i put (load
"view-less) in my .emacs, before requiring dired.  i restarted, and
now the man browser is functioning normally.

i did not tried removing the (require 'dired) line from the .emacs file.
