Using INSTALL_MAN may not be 100% right as it really isn't a man page,
but some INSTALL_FOO seems right.   As an example I tend to think it
should not be executable.

I just read bsd.pkg.mk and decided INSTALL_DATA is better as the owner
fits share/examples better, so I changed it (in main, after adding it).
