Upgraded man command

I updated my cygwin system on my W2K SP4 systemto the latest release of
cygwin and the man command started to display man pages as follows:

ESC[1mNAMEESC[0m
       ln - make links between files

ESC[1mSYNOPSISESC[0m
       ESC[1mln ESC[22m[ESC[4mOPTIONESC[24m]... ESC[4mTARGETESC[24m
[ESC[4mLINK_NAMEESC[24m]
       ESC[1mln ESC[22m[ESC[4mOPTIONESC[24m]... ESC[4mTARGETESC[24m...
ESC[4mDIRECTORYESC[0m
       ESC[1mln ESC[22m[ESC[4mOPTIONESC[24m]...
ESC[4m--target-directory=DIRECTORYESC[24m ESC[4mTARGETESC[24m...

Interestingly, the man pages previously cached in /usr/man/cat1 seem to
format just fine.  If I remove the cached version, I get something akin to
the above.

I suspect this is some sort of setup problem, but I have been unable to
track it down.  All involved commands seem to be up-to-date.
