If I do
man man
in a Windows’ console, I get garbage on screen before I press

Windows console is what you start with Win+R cmd, right? Works fine for me.
Why don't you run cygwin programs in a proper cygwin environment to
avoid such trouble?
Contrary to
man man
this cannot be overwritten by setting
set MANPAGER=less -sr
. (However, this may be overwritten by setting
set PAGER=less -sr
)
In my particular setup, it would be enough if the bug with MANPAGER is
fixed. However, it seems that setting the default man’s pager to
less -sr
should be a much better solution.
Hope this helps,
Ilya
P.S. It seems that the mailing list does not allow attaching the output!
So I retry with a shortened version…
