Yes - I suspect it may well be down to an incompatibility with
your version of autotools.  In the Makefile on my system,
the relevant definition is

        mandir          = ${prefix}/man

which seems to be picked up from a setting in one of the autoconf files.

We would be somewhat reluctant to upgrade the required version of
autoconf, without careful liaison among the core developers first.
And the run-up to a new release (let alone two!) is hardly the
ideal time for that :-)
