PLIST issues with xorg on Solaris

[Neil Hoggarth <neil.hoggarth%physiol.ox.ac.uk@localhost>]

I have been attempting to doing pkgsrc builds on Solaris 9 using the
xorg libraries rather than Sun's OpenWindows libraries.

On a freshly bootstrapped pkgsrc setup, I added "X11_TYPE=xorg" to my
mk.conf file and tried to build some packages with X11 dependencies.

I first hit problems with xorg-imake:

And the "missing" files prevent me from being able to "make package".
This problem seems to be related to the last handful of lines in the
PLIST:

${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/ccmakedep.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/cleanlinks.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/gccmakedep.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/imake.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/lndir.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/makedepend.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/makeg.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/makestrs.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/mergelib.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/mkdirhier.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/mkhtmlindex.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/pswrap.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/revpath.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/rman.${MAN_SUFFIX}
${IMAKE_MANTOOLS}${X11ROOT_PREFIX}/${MAN_DIR}/xmkmf.${MAN_SUFFIX}

It appears that MAN_DIR and MAN_SUFFIX expand to null strings on my
system.  I can actually get the package to build correctly by passing
in MAN_DIR=man/man1 and MAN_SUFFIX=0 into the make via the
envirionment. However I then hit similar issues on an even bigger
scale with the xorg-libs package.

Is X11_TYPE=xorg supposed to work on Solaris?

Have I missed something, misconfigured something, or should I file a PR?
