          You should only need it if you modified a dependency of a man

          You may want to install the GNU Help2man package:

 I noticed that there were some commits [https://github.com/macports
 /macports-ports/search?q=autoconf+help2man&type=commits back in 2013] to
 deal with this issue on macOS, but I'm not sure why this isn't working
 here.
