Pushed bcd-3.7-10.1.mga6 to core/updates_testing. It should fix the issue, please test.

$ man bcd
man: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/bcd.1.lzma.xz: ignoring bogus filename
No manual entry for bcd
$ man conf.xml
man: warning: /usr/share/man/man1/conf.xml.1.lzma.xz: ignoring bogus filename
No manual entry for conf.xml

Updated to bcd-3.7-10.1.mga6 for x86_64

$ man bcd
Now working fine.

$ man conf.xml
CONF.XML(1)           User Contributed Perl Documentation          CONF.XML(1)

OK for 64 bits.

Don't know if a 32-bit test is necessary with this noarch package but am doing it anyway.
mga6 in i586 virtualbox

man displays the reported fault before the update of bcd and it is gone after the update.

Closing as Mageia robot failed to do so due to lack of permissions, which has
now been fixed.
