So the C docs work, the international docs don't, they all fail with a 
multibyte character error. How would I go about debugging this (and the regex 
patch earlier)? Also, when I noted that there were translation warnings being 
thrown, this was only for the man pages, the other docs didn't throw this.


Thank you for your time,
