MANn takes the place of adding entries to the plist (allowing for the
use of MANCOMPRESSED and such).  Accordingly, the files referenced are
nominally in the installed tree, but the MANn magic knows about
MANPREFIX, so you should just use MAN1= manpage.1 with no other path
components.

You need to ensure that they end up in $MANPREFIX, so yes.
