It is not:
$ LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 man koi8-r | fgrep COPYRIGHT
277 191 BF ¿ COPYRIGHT SIGN
$
It doesn't produce proper output in a koi8-r locale, either:
$ LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R man koi8-r | fgrep COPYRIGHT
277 191 BF ? COPYRIGHT SIGN
$
The koi8-r(7) manpage is written using the koi8-r character set, but
man doesn't know that and interprets it as written in iso-8859-1,
which causes the above breakage. The same bug is present in at least
the following manpages:
armscii-8(7)
cp1251(7)
iso-8859-2(7)..iso-8859-16(7)
koi8-u(7)
Please change these manpages to use utf-8.
