      macros/plain/base/manmac.tex
      macros/plain/contrib/samples/manmac.tex
      systems/knuth/dist/lib/manmac.tex

The first is a symlink to the third, which is the canonical source
maintained by Knuth, as one might guess from the directory name.

The second is a separate, and old, copy.  That directory is ca.1989, and
is evidently a more or less random collection of files, some Knuth's
(which should become symlinks, I guess), some not (which may be
maintained elsewhere).  I don't have the energy to sort it out.  I hope
someone else does ...  -k
