Summary

This is the only manual in section 8 done this way in freebsd-base.
It creates a new section "8/amd64", and maybe the otherwise empty folder
at /usr/share/man/man8/amd64?

What is creating /usr/share/man/man8/i386?
It is populated, but empty, on my generic bsdinstalled 15.0-R.

The move into the generic place seems good.

The empty directories are most likely created due to definitions in etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist. I wonder if it is populated on an i386 install?
