Here they are, with version 2.13.1:

$ LANG= man grep-dctrl | fgrep "apt|dpkg" | od -c
0000000                               %       g   r   e   p   -   s   t
0000020   a   t   u   s       -   P       -   e       '   a   p   t   |
0000040   d   p   k   g   '  \n
0000046
$ LANG=en_US.UTF8 man grep-dctrl | fgrep "apt|dpkg" | od
-c
0000000                               %       g   r   e   p   -   s   t
0000020   a   t   u   s       -   P       -   e     342 200 231   a   p
0000040   t   |   d   p   k   g 342 200 231  \n
0000052

The output of the second command should exactly match that of the
first.  The translated finnish manpage may be more correct than the
english original, if it exists.
