Hello Colin,

(I'm the upstream manpages maintainer, and I'm going to defer totally
to your judgement on what needs to be done here.)

In this report I see:

This is one approach, but a cleaner one would be to change the first
line of iso-8859-15.7.gz to:

  '\" t -*- coding: ISO-8859-15 -*-
]]

It looks like this is the only piece that applies for the man-pages
maintainer, right?

Am I correct to assume that there should be analogous changes in all
of the other iso_8859-*.7 pages, so that each such page specifies its
specific locale at the top?

Cheers,

Michael
