FHS mandates manpages should go to /usr/share/man (or /usr/local/share/man, for site local installations) -- /usr/man was an fallout of some ancient Unices that haven't been fully FHS conformant and usually just a symlink to /usr/share/man, if existing at all. Distros sometimes need to override this (eg. MVCC installs), therefore go the 30+ years common practise way and introduce MANDIR environment variable. Since it's a subdir under the prefix for general constant and machine architecture independ data -- which in turn also sometimes wants to be overridden by distros, it shall be derived from DATADIR variable.
