A new port of rman is now available.  You can get it from

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/utils/rman.tar.gz (source)

and the corresponding directories on mirror sites.

This program does a reverse compilation of man pages.  The upgrade
brings the port from version 2.0 to 2.4.

Note this port has a restrictive copyright, and thus no package is
made available.

P.S. Note that the "source" above is actually the ports skeleton only;
     when you extract it on your machine (preferably into
     /usr/ports/utils) and type "make", it will automatically fetch the
     original source and builds the program.  Try "make fetch-list" if
     you are not IP connected to obtain a list of files you need to
     fetch.
