Solved Man Pages for Ports...

I'm not quite sure if this is a bug or not, and I deeply apologize if it's not, but there is something I've noticed...

None of the programs I have installed through ports (vim, cups, xterm, etc) appear to have man pages installed, although all the base programs do and they work fine. These third party manpages never have been here in the past, and although it's not a great hindrance, I am curious if this is normal, or if I have a messed up manpath or something along those lines. Is it indeed supposed to be like this?
 
Yes, absolutely!

Ah, sorry to have wasted your time on a trivial fix like this! A subtly improper check in the .tcshrc, it was setting a Linux manpage directory. My apologies, everything works as expected now after removing the assignment. Thank you both for your assistance!
