It seems the manpages are distributed as part of the base.txz now, but
downloading ~57 MiB seems wasteful, e.g.:
$ wget -O-
'http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/9.1-RELEASE/base.txz'
| tar -Jxvf - ./usr/share/man
Is there any reason we don't get these from SVN like most other things?
$ svn export "http://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/$(VER)/share/man/"
