Hi,
they cant be placed among the standard manpages as they conflict with
the native libc manpages in manpages-dev. The intention is that you
read them using avr-man instead of man. That way those files are
considered datafiles of avr-man and the poliy places such files under
/usr/lib/. However avr-man seem to be currently broken, so it should
be fixed.

An alternative would be to consider them architecture-dependent man
pages and place them under /usr/share/man/man3/avr/. Yet another
option would be to place them under  /usr/share/man/man3 but with an
.3avr suffix. Any preferences?
