Yes, but the current version of the GNU standards
in <http://www.gnu.org/prep/make-stds.texi> says this:

   @item mandir
   The top-level directory for installing the man pages (if any) for this
   package.  It will normally be @file{/usr/local/share/man}, but you
   should write it as @file{$(datarootdir)/man}.  (If you are using
   Autoconf, write it as @samp{@@mandir@@}.)

If this is wrong, then the GNU standards need to be fixed.
