Are you referring to man pages?  I believe those were getting added to
the plist internally before, so the final difference in plist before and
after staging is zero (if man pages are the only item in question).

I don't see many PORTREVISION bumps as result of stage conversion
(only).  So I think not.

I think maintainer-updates only means the maintainer wrote the PR, so if
that's the case, mark it maintainer-update.
