I came across these after a quick search:

FreeBSD Man Pages: M = MIME

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gopher&sektion=1&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE+and+Ports

And more:

http://dictionary.die.net/gopher%20object%20type

and ewboontoo:

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man1/gopher.1.html

There's no gopher man or info entries on my Yggdrasil fall '93' distro
running the .99.13 kernel though ;)
