I did:

./configure --enable-thread-safety \
--with-openssl \
--with-perl \
--with-python \
--with-tcl \
--with-bonjour \
--with-pam \
--with-krb5
make
sudo make install

This set of commands used to put the man pages in /usr/local/pgsql/share/man

In the meantime, I just found that the man pages were in fact in the sources package, in doc/src/sgml/man{1,3,7} I believe. So, I guess I should rename the bug as something like "man pages not installed by default after compiling PostgreSQL 9.0.1 sources on OX X 10.6".
