Yes, you are right; there's a bug in latex2html.pin .

It's an easy edit in  sub replace_strange_accents :

REPLACE:
    s/\?`/&iso_map("questacute", "")/geo;
    s/!`/&iso_map("exclamacute", "")/geo;

WITH:
    s/\?`/&iso_map("iquest", "")/geo;
    s/!`/&iso_map("iexcl", "")/geo;


Also, in  $LaTeX2HTMLDIR/versions/latin5.pl  the entity is called
 iexclam  instead of  iexcl , so that should also be changed (2 places).

Yes, do the edits mentioned above, and re-install.
(Or edit the installed latex2html files instead.)


Hope this helps,
