Hello.

Permissions on /var/lib/herdstat should be set to drwxrwsr-x (note "s" in group). 

In the current situation when permissions are

drwxrwxr-x  2 root     portage 4096 Янв 28 19:08 herdstat

and user which has umask 0027 runs herdstat, other users that are in portage group could not use herdstat anymore. That is because files in /var/lib/herdstat directory will be owned by users initial login group and are not readable for others:
-rw-r-----  1 pva  pva     84378 Янв 28 19:06 herds.xml

Thank you in advance.
