Remove -Tlatin from the nroff call, as nroff will autodetect the proper charset (this will help in displaying utf8 man pages), closing 7477 hopefully.
Afaik this is no solution. In fact man pages are even more broken then. :-)
It fixes *some* here. For instance, take a look at the pacman 3.1 man page. A few of the quote characters are in utf8, and show up as (?) or something until you remove the -Tlatin1.
When I remove -Tlatin1 I got the following result: http://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/tmp/man.png Yes, even english man pages are broken now. With -Tlatin1 only those which are localized are broken.
Either way, removing that should be the proper way to go here. Replacing man with man-db is probably more proper, but I am simply working with what we have at this moment, as I don't have enough gusto to do the complete replacement.
I did not test man-db so far. (The package in [community] does not work) -- archlinux.de
