Does this include special cases such as the following comment in
devel/aegis/Makefile (which I am the maintainer of and since the
upstream is "dead" it was a single person who died in 2012)?

# XXX Manpages are installed into ${DATADIR} too -- there's no easy way to
#     stop this because we don't have Makefile.am provided.  Maintainer will
#     sort this with upstream.

Note I have updated everything to be built with the latest llvm and stuff.
