only root can view the man page of sys-apps/paxctl becasue it has the wrong
permissions:

ls -l /usr/share/man/man1/paxctl.1.gz
-rw-------  1 root root 1254 Mar 29 17:01 /usr/share/man/man1/paxctl.1.gz

This is due to the file permissions in the upstream tarball paxctl-0.3.tar.gz.

Fixed in CVS on 0.3-r1 (no rev bump) - give it time to reach the rsync servers,
sync up then re-emerge.

it's a feature not a bug, proactive security or something (all files are go-rwx
;-). more seriously, i guess i should be using 'install' instead of 'cp',
patches are welcome.
