If you are creating a package it goes in /usr/share/man. If you are installing locally from a tarball you want it in /usr/local. RPM packages should NEVER (bold, underline and blink) touch /usr/local or /opt. Manually installed packages usually SHOULD use them, that is what they were designed for, And I think (but could be wrong) the .gz would be preferred since man deals with it just fine and it is smaller.
