No, this is not fine.  NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES is not a make.conf variable.  You
are misusing it.

Any non-imake port that supports this is incorrect and must be fixed.

No, it didn't.  Man pages are not separate.


> Need an opportunity not install man pages when required (example jailed environment).

Well, jailed environment isn't a strong example.  Most people use "embedded
environment".  There is a request for no-manpage installs.  It's not
implemented yet.  This isn't the implementation.
