What is the appropriate permissions notice to use for the manual pages
in doc/man?

emacsclient.1 is public domain - fine.

etags.1 has a simple "preserve permissions" notice.

emacs.1 has the same notice as etags.1, but contains the GPL
boilerplate as a comment at the start, which is confusing, even if it
may be technically correct to note that Emacs as a whole is GPL'd.

ebrowse.1 has no permissions notice.
