The gcc man page has disappeared!
I use gcc 4.3.2 on amd64.
"man gcc" shows the following output:
| Code: | GCC(1) GNU GCC(1)

The file /usr/share/gcc-data/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/man/man1/gcc.1.bz2 has the following content:

I tried to recompile gcc but this page remains the same... how can I get back my precious man page? 
Other man pages of the same package (for exemple man gfortran) still exists and have proper content.

It might be worth checking the cat version of the man page, which I _think_
is under /var/cache/man. If that's corrupted, remove it and re-run
'man gcc' and see if that improves things.

There is no cached gcc man page in /var/cache/man and also the original man page is empty... I fear some bug from upstream or in the ebuild.

"man gcc" shows the following output: |
I am running the same version and arch as you and I can confirm it is missing on my system as well. |
