I can confirm this on a clean install of Snow Leopard (not upgrade). If I make a symbolic link from the file in /usr/local/man/man1/* to / usr/share/man/man1 then it works immediately.
The manpath on my system is the following by default: gl...@macbook-pro ~$ manpath /opt/local/share/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/local/mysql/man:/usr/ share/man:/usr/X11/man Based on this path it seems that /usr/local/share/man/man1 would be the best place to put it.
