I'm not sure I understand you.  If you are advocating moving the manpages 
generated by ports stuff (and whatever else I port to my machine) from 
/usr/local/man, or anywhere else, into the main system manpages at 
/usr/share/man, then I am strongly against this.  Is that what you were 
proposing?  I want to keep the manpages generated from the FreeBSD 
distribution separate from local option manpage stuff.

Chuck Robey chuckr@eng.umd.edu, I run FreeBSD-current on n3lxx + Journey2
 
Three Accounts for the Super-users in the sky,
  Seven for the Operators in their halls of fame,
Nine for Ordinary Users doomed to crie,
  One for the Illegal Cracker with his evil game
In the Domains of Internet where the data lie.
  One Account to rule them all, One Account to watch them,
  One Account to make them all and in the network bind them.
