No, but I expect to happen at least with the Wide Curses support,
and I wanted to do this now instead of forgetting this.

I'm not sure. Can you have a look at 
localsrc/legal/TheOpenGroup/TOG_LICENSE section (b) and tell me what you 
think? What confuses me is that the license text does mention "NetBSD" in 
many places, so maybe this is intended to be kept generic: If FooBSD wants 
to add our manpages, they'd have to state ``Portions of this text are 
reprinted and reproduced in electronic form in the FooBSD'', and of course 
this would only be true if they asked for permission.

At least that's as smart as I am from the license text, which is not very 
much on an absolute scale.
