One thing I noticed when evaluating similar suggestion for dictionaries-common (#566078). You may want to modify that patch to make sure that '-O UTF-8' is used in the w3m call (mutt upstream does not set it) LC_ALL=C w3m -dump -O UTF-8 manual.html > $@ || \ to force the output charset to UTF-8. Otherwise output may be incorrectly rendered by w3m if 8bit chars are present (renders as '?' for 'C' locale).
