I have MANBUILDCAT=yes in my /etc/make.conf. Some of the catpages are generated during the buildworld, but not for all cat? directories. The make world cycle seems to generate for example all the catpages under /usr/share/man/cat?, but it does not generate the ones under /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-1/cat?, while these cat? directories are created. Since my LC_CTYPE is set to de_DE.ISO8859-15 man looks for the man and catpages in the directory /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-15, which is a symlink to /usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-1, but there are not catpages, so they need to be generated.
