Documentation in the manpages shouldn't be Arch Linux specific.
So, what about patching it to be arch-specific when its package is built? This way you can distribute a source package that contains the general man-page, while you can get an extra "ARCH BEHAVIOR" section that's going to show up only when using the arch PKGBUILD. An alternative would be creating a new man-page||package that is clearly marked as arch-specific. In this case you can clearly separate generic and specific material, while the previous proposal can be a bit more hackish and messy. C.
