If i understand correctly what you are saying and if your assessment
is correct (i didn't check), then essentially upstream is shipping
empty manual pages.
In such a case, commenting them out in the PLIST seems reasonable to
me. Maybe put a comment similar to the following above them, to
reduce the risk that upstream later adds content to them but we
keep them commented out:
@comment When updating, check whether these manuals are still empty.
Yours,
Ingo
