| The dia port installs dia.1 which contains html, not mdoc or similar.

Indeed,

however, the problem seems not to be FreeBSD specific (it's
not a problem of the port) but of the upstream
author/sources.

The dia.1 file is already included in the distfile in HTML
format. If this is a mistake then it should be corrected by
the dia authors.

FWIW, an inspection of the Makefiles in the dia distribution
suggest that dia.1 should be generated from a dia.dbk
(DocBook?) file. 

work/dia-0.94/doc/en/Makefile:# xsltproc --nonet --novalid 
$(DB2MAN) dia.dbk >dia.1

However, this line is commented and DB2MAN seems to be empty ...
