Update of bug #67285 (group groff):
Category: Preprocessor eqn => Preprocessor -
others/general
Status: Fixed => In Progress
Open/Closed: Closed => Open
Summary: [eqn] mangles multibyte UTF-8 sequences (or other
bytes with eighth bit set) it should pass through =>
[grn,eqn,pic,refer,soelim,tbl] should pass through, not mangle, multibyte
UTF-8 sequences

Follow-up Comment #3:
Reopening and generalizing, because several other preprocessors have this
problem too.
This is all of them except _pre-grohtml_ and _preconv_.
I think we can exclude those; the former is just a way to run "troff -Tps" so
the usual GNU _troff_ rules about 8-bit input apply to it.
And we can exclude the latter because the whole point of _preconv_ is to bust
the input down to US-ASCII so that GNU _troff_ can eat it without distress.
