So, the answer is no, a port's man pages should not be hidden inside
DOCS, if a port needs to add an option for man pages, because, for
example, they need to be generated with some tool, it should be behind a
MANPAGES option, and that option should be enabled by default.
There are propably ports that go against that paradigm, and they should
probably be reported and fixed.
