Thanks for the suggestions. Invoking man with "-E ascii" fixed this for me. It sounds like some distributions do have this fixed in their default settings. I'm on Cygwin 3.6.6; maybe it's mostly a Cygwin thing.

I intended to post in defense of manpages. I love manpages. I think most open-source manpages are high-quality, and a few are really outstanding. "It's easier to ask an AI" can be true without implying that manpages are bad.
