Port installing localized manual pages.

Hi,

Recently I've got the chance of playing with a port[1] which installs
localized manual pages :).

For the locales of manual pages, I removed the lines from pkg-plist
corresponding to manual pages and their corresponding '@dirrmtry' and added
following lines:

#v+
MAN1=           qelectrotech.1
MANLANG=        "" es fr.ISO8859-1 fr.UTF-8 fr pt_PT
MANCOMPRESSED=  yes
#v-

This worked great and the man pages were recorded as expected, but tinderbox
resulted in:

#v+
list of extra files and directories in / (not present on clean system but present after everything was deinstalled)
1110986        3 drwxr-xr-x    3 root             wheel                   3 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/fr.ISO8859-1
1110987        3 drwxr-xr-x    2 root             wheel                   2 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/fr.ISO8859-1/man1
1110989        3 drwxr-xr-x    3 root             wheel                   3 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/fr.UTF-8
1110990        3 drwxr-xr-x    2 root             wheel                   2 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/fr.UTF-8/man1
1110993        3 drwxr-xr-x    3 root             wheel                   3 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/pt_PT
1110994        3 drwxr-xr-x    2 root             wheel                   2 Jul 17 12:40 usr/local/man/pt_PT/man1
#v-

What do you say ? Should I add '@dirrmtry' corresponding to above manual
directories ? Or, for all manual directories ? Or just ignore the warning ?
