Oops, that would be non-trivial substitution. It's more like
PATH_MAN_ADD bin ../man
PATH_MAN_ADD .bin ../.man
PATH_MAN_ADD /usr/bin ../share/man
And the code for third example would look smth like
# set by PATH_MAN_ADD first and second argument
from=/usr/bin
to=../share/man
case "$path" in
*$from) p="$path/$to"
p=$(realpath $p)
add_to_manpath "$p"
