Hi,
thanks to both Clint and you for the help.
In /etc/groff/man.local, I removed the comments in front of: . if '\*[.T]'utf8' \ . char - \N'45'
and removed the negation ! in front of the first condition: . if '\*[.T]'utf8' \ . tr \[oq]' (I could have removed the condition alltogether)
You made my day! :-)

I'm pretty sure, it's somehow due to the fact that I have set LANG=en_IE.UTF-8 (unicode being important of course).
Nevertheless, I don't know if it's a problem of the manpage system or of the manpage writers, and how the writers could circumvent/solve the problem. And this information would be useful before I start filing bugs, or!?
Clint already told you how "writers" cand solve the problem. In the meantime, you may find useful the workaround described in the last paragraph of /etc/groff/man.local.
