I was recently getting that for a couple days as well. It seems to have
fixed itself, and I'm not sure whether it's because I got around to
running etc-update or because I upgraded again. I've been doing a lot
of both the last couple days. I'm just guessing here, but I'd give
etc-update a try, and if that doesn't work do emerge -u man.
In the meantime (until you get it fixed), you can get things to at
least look better by doing:
$ export PAGER='less -s -R'
This will cause less to pass through the ANSI color escape sequences.
Good luck.
