Also happens for Serbian. It seems any character not covered by ISO-8859-1
(i.e. Latin-1) encoding is converted to XML character entity, and the man
page is written out in ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8.

It's not system specific, in that installed man pages end up having these
entities, which shouldn't happen (native man page format is troff, I think).
So the DocBook-to-man step in the build chain of language packs is messing
up.
