If not - may be there is some other solution? At the very least, there should be a note that appears on the screen at the end of the output from "make install" that would warn that the man pages are in a different location. Otherwise, if one assumes that this port follows the general convention will never find those man pages... :) As for the OpenSSL in 4.0 - I still can not find the man pages for the OpenSSl that became a part of the base system.
