Some packages use bsd-style .mk files when building, and so any manual
pages that are installed will be gzip-compressed, if MANZ is set, or not if MANZ is not set. If the package uses bsd-style .mk files, the variable MANCOMPRESSED_IF_MANZ should be set to a value of "yes" in the package Makefile. This replaces the previous method of specific inclusion of bsd.prefs.mk, followed by a check for MANZ and conditional assignment of MANCOMPRESSED. Add appropriate documentation, and change all necessary ocurrences in package Makefiles.
