In their defense, that package is structured ridiculously. We certainly
shouldn't be using $FILESDIR as the source control repository for the
shell/awk scripts that generate the man pages. If anything, they belong
in their own package, with their own "upstream" project/repository. The
eclass-manpages package would then (build-) depend on the scripts -- at
least for -9999 version that builds them on the fly.
