I managed to get this kind of situation by installing first the
"minimal set" (or "distribution") and then installing everything else
from the ports. The minimal installation set does not have man pages.
To get small - but fully functional - installation, I had to install
the "User set", which contains the required binaries and all relevant
documentation files. Maybe re-running the sysinstall and selecting
appropriate distribution set could help?
