+ ===============================================================
+
+Some distribution files used to create our packages come with BSDish
+Makefiles that compress manual pages automatically if "MANZ" is defined.
+To avoid an error on "make install" because the manual pages can't be
+compressed by <bsd.port.mk> add this work arround to the package's Makefile:
+
+# MANZ is handled automatically
+.if defined(MANZ)
