There's a way around that--don't go straight to raw Unicode code points. Use
the `\[hy]` special character, if you _really_ want a true hyphen. This
choice does have portability consequences, of course.
$ printf '.TH foo 1 2026-01-04 "groff test suite"\n.SH Coyote\\[hy]wolf
hybrids in the Livermore Area\n' | groff -man -T pdf -Z | grep '^x X'
x X ps:exec [/Dest /foo(1) /View [/FitH -26000 u] /DEST pdfmark
x X ps:exec [/Dest /foo(1) /Title (foo(1)) /Level 1 /OUT pdfmark

The foregoing renders just fine for me. See attachment.
I don't think there's anything for _groff_'s developers to do here, so
resolving as invalid.
