Oh, that seems to get messy. Actually what is needed is "hyphen-minus",
the hyphen itself will not work either. In troff - is hyphen and \- is
minus.

    U+2010 ‐ hyphen
    U+002D - hyphen-minus
    U+2212 − minus sign

I'll investigate how to solve this. Perhaps that needs some fix in
groff's html output to add a way to get "hypen-minus".

Thanks for reporting this,
