Description of problem:
gnroff under RH80 translates the HYPHEN-MINUS character (U+002D) into a
Unicode HYPHEN (U+2010), which probabaly was not a good idea. As a
result, cut&pasting command line examples from man pages into xterm
leads to syntax errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
groff-1.18-6
man-1.5j-11
man-pages-1.53-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 xterm
2. man ls
3. Cut & paste the displayed command line option "-a" into bash as part of the
command "ls -a"


Actual Results:  ls: -a: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  A directory listing

Additional info:

Other distributions like SuSE and Debian fixed this by adding the following to
man.local:

    .if '\*[.T]'utf8' \{\
    .  char \- \N'45'
    .  char  - \N'45'
    .\}
