Just a comment.

Although this works for this one man page, it only removes two specific
UTF-8 characters in a specified sequence.  There are potentially 254
additional characters that this command does not change.  It is not a
general solution for all man pages.

Maybe there aren't any others.  I haven't checked.

I personally think this sets a bad precedent.  Do we need to check the
info pages too?  What is the harm in leaving the man pages the way they are?

Just my 2 &cent;s
