Those man pages are generated during the build. Even if you didn't
touch those files by hand, simple
# configure
# make
will update those man pages. Now, the question is if we should remove
those man pages from CVS. Man pages are the same as info files, which
are generated from texinfo files. If we don't include info files, why
shouldn't we do the same for man pages?
