It is in Hyperbola 7.0.3 I guess, also 7.0.3a I guess only, as I
removed 7.0.3a for a while, will get it later again.

(defact man-show (topic)
  "Displays man page on TOPIC, which may be of the form <command>(<section>).
If using the Superman manual entry package, see the documentation for
`sm-notify' to control where the man page is displayed."
  (interactive "sManual topic: ")
  (let ((display-buffer-function
         (lambda (buffer &rest unused) (hpath:display-buffer buffer))))
    (manual-entry topic)))

I have tried with emacs -Q on version 7.0.3 and I get the same. I do
not load nothing else but (package-initialize) and (require
'hyperbole)

For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.
C-x C-g is undefined
nil
Initializing Hyperbole...done
Hyperbole 7.0.3 is ready for action.
