? Is there a specific manpage that you are missing?  A cursory glance
shows that these sections are populated:

 sh -c 'cd /tmp ; for i in a b c d e f g ; do  fetch -ampv
"http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/8.2-RELEASE/manpages/manpages.a${i}"
; done ; cat manpages.?? > manpages.tar.gz ; mkdir manpages82 ; tar -C
manpages82 -xvf manpages.tar.gz; ls manpages82/usr/share/man/man[12]'
