Yelp gives me Funny characters in my stable BLFS installation. To give
you a flavour of what I see, I'm pasting part of what I see (and yes, it
does show Gnome 2.6, just noticed).

Any ideas please?
This is indeed caused by incorrect charset conversion. Details:
In ISO-8859-1, the "non-breaking space" character is 0xA0, the  is
0xC2. In UTF-8, the entire indivisible 0xC2 0xA0 sequence means a
non-breaking space.
You can verify this by running something like "LANG=en_US.UTF-8 yelp".
Also I am curious where this HTML comes from. Does this HTML file have a
proper <META> tag?
This may as well be a gtkhtml bug, try playing with versions and
LD_PRELOAD. I can't help much because I don't use GNOME.
