Bug 21502 and this forum topic describe the problem:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-446817-highlight-libpngmanual.html

Although the libpng ebuild isn't going to fix this problem, perhaps compressing libpng-manual.txt in bz2 is an effective work-around?

emerge --sync and then upgrading my portage fixed it. Not sure why, but I'm closing this bug as invalid.

Sorry!
