Another problem with the gentoo system upgrade (or destruction, depending on the way you look at it) is that now man pages are formatted incorrectly. They look like this: (from man man):
ESC[1mSynopsisESC[om
and so on... lots of ESC's and I presume control characters. Obviously this is a bug, but I don't know who's bug it is- would it be the man programs or some other program that formats it to display?
This is a terminal problem of some kind, probably not one with man. Check that your TERM environment variable is set correctly.
