--- Comment #1 from Wolfram Schneider <wosch@FreeBSD.org> ---
By default https://man.freebsd.org searches for manual pages in the base system
*and* ports.

e.g.:

https://man.freebsd.org/confctl

The links will work between base and ports manual pages.


The search
https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sysctl&sektion=8&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+Ports+13.2

explicitly searches only for manual pages in ports. This is the expected
behaviour, search in ports only. 

I guess you wanted to use:
https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sysctl&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+13.2-RELEASE+and+Ports
