It's already in /usr/share/man/man8/i386:
$ grep apmd.8 distrib/sets/lists/man/mi
./usr/share/man/man8/apmd.8                     man-sysutil-man         .man
./usr/share/man/man8/i386/apmd.8                man-obsolete            
obsolete

You're saying that it would also be necessary to have it in dedicated 
subdirectories for arm, hpcsh, macppc, and sparc?

What purpose do these port-specific directories serve that is not served by 
simply delivering the items in question to the ports where they are relevant 
and not delivering them to the ports where they should not exist?

Thanks.
