Yes, I've confirmed that. However, only *parts* of the -e
switch are broken. And I see in the code why. I actually

OK. I assume that adding | iconv -f UTF-8 -t //TRANSLIT to the end
will make the line work also in non-UTF-8 locales (manual pages are
still expected to be in UTF-8). Could you please test this?

Roll back to file-4.21. The newer versions of file do not display the
character set if type is text/troff. Additionally, the -e switch does
not work at all (nor the long --exclude), so you can't exclude the troff
