the cheapskate way out would be to simply provide a link to one or
more external sites, similar to the one ralph just referenced:
    https://manned.org/browse/debian-jessie/nmh/1.6-2

i have no idea if manned.org would have policy issues with that. 

ubuntu and freebsd have the pages online too, but i don't find the
convenient view-by-package index that manned.org has.  maybe linking
to mh-chart would be the answer:
    
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mh-chart&sektion=7&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+10.3-RELEASE+and+Ports
    http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man7/mh-chart.7mh.html

obviously the link(s) on savannah would have to be updated
periodically.  (keeping a set of links to the last several mh releases
might be helpful as well.)
