Can this function be deleted from man.el and calls to it be replaced by
calls to match-string?

(defsubst Man-match-substring (&optional n string)
  "Return the substring matched by the last search.
Optional arg N means return the substring matched by the Nth paren
grouping.  Optional second arg STRING means return a substring from
that string instead of from the current buffer."
  (if (null n) (setq n 0))
  (if string
      (substring string (match-beginning n) (match-end n))
    (buffer-substring (match-beginning n) (match-end n))))
