Odd. If you look at /etc/man.conf, does it contain the following line?

    MANPATH /usr/local/man

You did run makewhatis as root, right?
And there are xfce manpages in /usr/local/man, yes?


At the first glance though, XFCE doesn't seem to have all that many manpage=

(Of course this only found those ports that have a pkg-plist.)
