No, that is just a kluge that prevents the visible failure.

It looks to me like the problem is that the makefile expects the
man.tar.gz file to contain stuff in man1/ and man7/, but the file
that is actually being delivered in snapshots still contains man1/
and manl/.  So that file needs to be regenerated.  Peter?
