  This sounds great to me.  

  What about optional peices of the source tree like the Kerberos
stuff?  I'm in favor of creating share/man/man1/kerberos.1 that
explains what Kerberos is and how to install it, and then this would
be overwritten by the real man page if Kerberos is actually installed.
This would fix all the man pages that currently point to the
(non-existant for most people) kerberos(1).
