Yes, these warnings are harmless.

I assume you mean e_system_dind. This label is part of the
Clean run-time system that is linked with every Clean
program. I don't understand why the linker can't find it.

You could try to pass a verbose flag to the linker:
   % clm -l --verbose hello_world
there should be a _system.o in the linker's file list.
This file should contain the label:
  % nm _system.o | grep ind

Perhaps this information can give you aclue about what's
going wrong. Otherwise send the output of these commands
to clean@cs.kun.nl and add information about your system
(which Linux-distribution and version, etc.).

It's installed as part of  "make install", in particular
"make install_man". The exact location depends on the
variables at the start of the Makefile (default ./man).
You probably want to adjust your $MANPATH accordingly.
