 * I am working an autoconf build environment for OpenLDAP 1.1.
 * I am trying to sort out how to properly detect if the
 * system supports compress man pages, if so, which
 * compress mechanism should be used.  I also would like to
 * disable installation of compressed man based upon system
 * defaults.

I'm not sure how far you want to go, but for a reasonably recent
FreeBSD, you can just install the manpages uncompressed and list the
names in MAN? variables in the port Makefile.  See the handbook for
details.
