/etc/man_db.conf:MANPATH_MAP    /usr/games              /usr/share/man

/usr/games is not used in gentoo since games.eclass: remove last-rited eclass

That's the upstream default in src/man_db.conf.in and in fact the last five MANPATH_MAP entries don't apply to us. Plus, according to manpath(5) the information in man_db.conf isn't even used because /etc/env.d/50baselayout defines an explicit MANPATH.

So AFAICS no action is required here.
