What does that have to do with anything?

The "man" programs on all systems can still find entries in those
secions if I understand correctly.

The real question though is what section would games manual pages be put
into on those systems if such things were installed by the vendor?

I.e. the "6" should be from a variable set in mk/defs.${OPSYS}.mk as not
all systems use the same section numbering (at least no beyond 3 ;-)
