Looking at the man page I see that the escaped version of some characters
are used.

  \e  for \  (which won't work when the escape character is redefined)
  \&_ for _  what is that non-printable, zero width character doing there?
  \`  for `  but the escaped version maps to the grave accent
  \'  for '  but the escaped version maps to the acute accent
  \-  for -  why? we want the real minus character, not some hyphen

As UTF8 and all the ISO-8859-x fonts have the standard ASCII character set
at the beginning, why not use the real ASCII characters in this man page?
After all, it is about the ASCII set now how you could pretty format that on
some output device.
