Non standard locations for man pages

In an effort to package up multiple MPI libraries (LAM-MPI, Open-MPI, and MPICH2), we're running into a number of issues with file conflicts. The current strategy is to move many things into /usr/share/%{name}. However, man pages put in /usr/share/%{name}/man are not compressed.

Should I just file a bug against /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress (rpm-build) to add that pattern? Current list is:

for d in ./usr/man/man* ./usr/man/*/man* ./usr/info \
        ./usr/share/man/man* ./usr/share/man/*/man* ./usr/share/info \
        ./usr/kerberos/man ./usr/X11R6/man/man* ./usr/lib/perl5/man/man* \
        ./usr/share/doc/*/man/man* ./usr/lib/*/man/man*

Or should the man pages go elsewhere?

Anything I should do in the meantime to compress the man pages manually if this is the right location until rpm-build is fixed?
