Gah, i totally missed /usr/src/distrib/sets/lists/comp/{gcc,clang}.*
Indeed, that's a complete system for installing md manual pages
into mi directories. I doubt that attempting to clean that up
during -beta would be a particularly good idea.
So just use that system for now, sorry for the disruption.
Regarding longer term cleanup, we have at least these md pages
in mi directories:
comp/gcc.*: gcc(1) gcov(1)
comp/clang.*: cc(1) c++(1) clang(1) clang++(1) clang-cpp(1)
comp/md.*: as(1) gdb(1)
And you say there are more pages, listed in mi files, where
the *content* is actually md, describing totally different programs?
comp/mi: cpp(1) ld(1) ... ???
That is sad because it results in the wrong wrong manual pages
being shown in man(1) -S and on the web. For example,
https://man.openbsd.org/luna88k/cpp.1
https://man.openbsd.org/arm64/ld.1
Your diff will not fix that.

I see.
Yours,
