I missed reading the point that you were writing a new port, my mistake,
sorry.  You know that putting the man page on the MAN1 list doesn't
install it, it just manages the compression and PLIST management, the
port itself has to take responsibility for actually moving tuc.1 into
position for it to be found for compression.  Sometimes, the
distribution makefile handles this for you, and sometimes you have to
explicitly add a $(INSTALL_MAN) line to the port's makefile to do it
yourself.

Are you certain that tuc.1 is really going into place?
